Thanks for the clarification. Still don't like how Dave was uninvited remoted by a director. I need more explaining how that was proper and encouraging of future new members.

I have been keeping my mouth shut lately but now feel that it's time for a change here in the west. I had a situation a few months ago that involved my efforts to share the good stuff my chapter has been fortunate to enjoy. I heard from Dave Watson , responding to a comment I had made about how our...

Thanks Al! Great info.

I was also smelling gas today in my '67 on our first drive in a month in this fine sunny LA weather. Top of left primary carb was wet with gas, the large filter inlet nut was leaking.

Thanks for making this a fun and safe place for Corvair misfits like me.
Happy Birthday!

So glad to make your acquaintance as well. From the moment I saw the Corvair Forum tshirt you were wearing I had to startup a conversation. When you said your alias was "caraholic4life" I had to laugh out loud to meet one of my long time forum Corvair stars! Enjoy the photo of our in perso...

Thanks much Tom!

I may reach out again when I get to that stage on my car in a few weeks.

Well, while I wait for gaskets, I resurfaced the pressure plate and balanced the assembly. Wish I had a dynamic balancer, but this has worked well in the past. The flywheel is going to be an aluminum flywheel with a steel friction surface 6lb. It should help the OTTO20 rev quickly! I like to balanc...

Ready to vote on 4/1!

Dave,
For this election I wish I was in your division, but I'm not.
I know you will win and get the other forum on the right track!

Thanks,

Mike

Look forward to your spreadsheet Al.

We have two cars and couples coming down Thur and heading back late Saturday.
Staying at the Helendorf.

See you then!
