Corvair Forum

Nevermind, I am a moron, they only go on one way. Sorry for the time you all wasted reading this.

Hoping for an assist here. Have shop manual but it is not clear and have not been able to find an assembly diagram. I removed and disassembled the front end of the 63 Monza Spyder. Have painted and power coated everything and cannot for the life of me remember the following: The crosshaft on the upp...

Cool! My daughter is at TCU. Here is a pic of my wife's anniversary present for our 25th in March of 2014. She has no clue!

Howdy back at you! What part of Texas are you from? Post some pictures of your Corvair when you get a chance, I am restoring a 63 Monza Spyder.

Sounds like you found the same thing in your tank that I found in my wife's car. Ordered a new tank (old one had some fiberglass repair done to it :eek: ) Got mine from Tamraz ($164 for tank, $75 for sending unit (complete)) free shipping and NO TAXES..... got on Ebay. It came in yesterday - They ev...

Ok I ordered the replacement gas tank and sending unit for the 63 Spyder from Tamraz's $240 for both and free shipping. Had contacted local radiator shop about clean and seal on existing tank. Wanted $175, buying new was a "no brainer". Been working on garage remodel turing it into an orga...

I like it, this fall doing a remodel on my two car garage to make it more of a man-cave! The best part? It was the wife's idea. Not sure if she it trying to get me out of the house or what. Either way, I win!

It was dry and cold engine, just removed them plugs and wires and ran the test, sounds good! Not going to go into the engine. Just re-seal and put her back together! Removed drive train, good thing too, clutch was worn, dry u-joint on passenger side and leaking shift seal. Also going to to re-seal d...

($25). :clap: All in all a great weekend! engineaspulled2.jpg [a...

S-W-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-T !!!! Enuff said!

Thanks for the vid. Very cool and looking good 62.

So are those good readings for a 140hp? I cannot find specs on what it should be, as I do not have a 65 shop manual.

Very cool have the same engine in my 63 Monza, switching from 4 into 1 back to the 4 carb set up very soon!

Welcome to the forum from another newbie! Looks like a great start on a very cool Vair!

That is what I was hoping someone would say: The readings are really good, really high. That means I do not have to overhaul the engine, work on the heads, etc. etc. Pulled the gas tank off today and OMG, you would not believe the crap that came out of it. I am talking CHUNKS of rust and foreign mat...
