Bill,
    Sounds like a poor excuse from someone who can't seem to figure out just WHY he can't get it to "run like that again".
However, I wouldn't recommend turbo Corvairs for someone who doesn't want to learn how they are different from "regular" Corvairs.
Regards,
Frank Burkhard

I've never owned a turbo.  What's the general consensus out there?  Was the
