No pics right now , but I will get some...

Let me paint a picture..

89 Porsche 930 tranny , fully rebuilt , 40% LSD.

2004 LS1 from a vette ...not some homo with vette covers , a real vette LS1 350/375. (It's on it's way right now from cleveland pick a part)

Kennedy engineering engine adaptor plate

1966 Corvair corsa

Yes the birth of the first LS1 rear engine'd Corvair. I'm pretty sure it will be a nice low 12 sec car. When we weighed it last (with a 215 olds in it) the car came in @ 2570Lbs with a full tank.

Renegade Hybirds say that the 930 tranny is good for 750hp.

Using a Painless Harness and a re-programmed ECM with a back dated TB

also got the Fuel lines to convert to the 97 vette return line system.

lokar dipstick

coated block huggers

turbo clutch from the good folks @ Techart... This clutch costs MORE than my entire Northstar engine.

IT's costing a buttload of money ...but it's not mine and dad can afford it

Kick ass.. I will post pics.

Oh yeah , I still own a ghey Fiero.

I don't think Ralphy would take kindly to your plan. Suggest a change.

Sounds like a fun project. Just going to be a drag car?
I'd like to do a midengine Corvair one day. Already have access to the car, I just need to finish my Fiero first.

I'd have to use the Porsche trans in mid-engine configuration.

My dad had a Crown kit in his Corvair back in the day with a Corvette 327/350 that had the hydraulic cam but had been fitted with Rochester fuel injection. I hear that was a blast, but I was too young to remember it.

I've seen a pic of somebody who put an F-body bellhousing on a C5 transaxle and was going to put the whole shebang in a Corvair, but I can't see how it could possibly fit. From what I understand things are tight enough with the Saginaw box.

That's gonna be a beast. Looking forward to seeing pics. I've always liked Corvairs (even when the guys I went to H.S. with could buy nice ones for cheap.)

Renegade Hybirds...

They're still around? I thought they had disappeared, a while back.
Maybe their website was just down.

You'd think that after not winning 14 million presidential elections, the guy would realize that he is, yes indeed, a LOSER... but I'm still waiting for that to happen...
