:think: :idea: I'm just guessing at the source of these error messages and server time delays. Many users have migrated over from the CORSA website to the Corvair Forum.

:goodpost: :clap: » Wed Dec 20, 2023 4:12 pm Both the FAST and Pertronix systems need a source of voltage to power the electronic module. The most-convenient source for power is the ignition coil positive terminal. Allison/Crane Cams/FAST knew that the voltage available at the ignition coil positive...

I have not found any online collection of Chevrolet News Bulletins, but once in a while I come across one and file a copy on my PC for future reference and to share with others, when a question comes up on the Corvair Forum, like yours, that might benefit from something in my personal "Corvair ...

I believe the problem appears wh...

I have a 1964 Monza with a 1968 140hp engine with a simple electronic ignition. The wires are severely melting or have melted, i.e. the wiring harness got hot, there's a short, and the insulation is melting. In fact they are still getting hot. I still have to trace down the problem. In rereading yo...

Hi, my name is Tony. After being out of restoring old rides for 30+ years, I picked up a 1963 Corvair Convertible. Been sitting for 30-40 years. I have been slowly picking away at it since last fall. A lot of fun, really cool cars. Located in Northern Utah. :welcome2: :tu: :wave: Welcome, Tony, to ...

:goodpost: :ty: :tu: I enjoy reading about these Corvair-based "adventures". It does take an adventuresome soul to take such risks and to place your trust in your "trusty" but aging Corvair! :clap: I thought you might enjoy reading about some similar Corvair-based travels, so her...
