a question.... 327's
Hi guys, me again...
Can you sleeve a 350 down to 327? i'm just pondering something.
And... anyone have any links to those sb chevy powered Corvairs? (That's what i'm pondering, and no it wouldnt get the vettes engine :nono: )

The 327 large journal crank (fits a 350 block) is a rare, expensive beast. If you want a revver, thats the ticket, because you can use the 4 bolt block and make a stout lower end.
As for the mid-engine 'vair, get in touch with Clark's Corvairs on the East Coast. They have the kits in stock, but they may also have a line on a car that has already been cut up. Gotta tell ya, these are the ultimate sleepers. Guy at Sears Point has one that is well diguised, running a 400 small block that just terrorizes the coast road. Good luck.

The Corvair coupe unibody is pretty rigid and you put a full cage in it with struts out to the suspension pickup points it'll be rock solid. With the V-8 you give up a cross-bar, but the rear tube frame makes up for it. As long as you use a '65 or later, the "safety" issues are not a problem. What rear gear assembly 'ya considering?
