New motorhead from Florida
Hello! My latest project is a 1965 Corvair. Not your typical pro tour car, however, at 2400lbs it is quite a capable car. Right now it doesn't have the same straight line speed as most, but the handling makes up for it. I started with the chassis by adding heavy duty sport springs and adjustable shocks. I wanted plenty of rubber underneath, so I went with 245-40/17 and 215-40/17 tires. I repaired the body and painted it myself. The I recovered the seats and replaced everything in the interior. Next, i will be focused on the flat-6 motor. This is a capable motor, but it will get everything from new heads to oversized cylinders. My estimates are an additional 100 hp. Here's hoping!
