Wait a minute - looking at your Corvair technical guide I do have 180hp turbo heads??
I swear I looked into this before and concluded they were non-turbo, 110 heads???
Happy accident I guess!

Well, your head number is surrounded by 110hp head numbers, so maybe you just skipped up or down one line and misread it!

One more thing on your backup lights problem.

There is a steel ball bearing inside the light switch socket that actuates the switch. It may or may not be in your transmission. It is not listed in any manual. Your switch will not work without it (even if it is the correct switch).

I checked with Clarks and this is what they replied: "The ball behind the switch should be a 3/8" ball bearing which you may be able to find locally. It would be the same as the detent balls C4113" https://ssl.corvair.com/user-cgi/search.cgi?part=C4113 .
