Corvair Forum

I just got a rebuilt dual master cylinder from Pep Boys for my '67. Amazing price @ $18 but it has an unusual bolt-on top. I've never seen anything but the wire retainer type, which is what I currently have, which is what's shown on the PepBoys website at https://www.pepboys.com/prostop-remanufactur...

AFAIK there is no diff between 4-6-8 cylinder coils. They make a spark when triggered, it's up to the distributor to sort out the cylinders. Easy enough to test a coil, and 14.2 phms on the primary side is def high. By zero reading on the secondary, do you mean zero ohms, or zero connection (infinit...

Yeah, I'll probably join SCC. I keep meeting them in various venues, might as well make it official! Mike of Mike's Corvair Parts is a member, I gotta stay on his good side. :)

Just yesterday I rolled my '67 Monza 140 out of the garage she's been in for 19 years. Pretty rough but she's my first car (1980) and still beautiful to me. Much to do. Big summer ahead for me and "Corvaired-19".

I have 3 of these, bought years ago in a lot of a parted-out EM. Def 13", def Chevy. Just not sure if Corvair.

Batman knows.

Thanks for all the info, Brad. Re: "Being "at rest" for decades is not unusual for the Corvair." I'm sure everyone here has heard of Group Red.

It's simply beautiful! I had a brown LHD 1960 2-door automatic w/gas heater for several years. Ran great, sold it to a buddy in grad school who needed cheap transportation. Enjoy the journey!

seals arent really used on the exhaust. seals on the intake....................some people install them - some dont. factory engines had a little seal. -Scott V. Old post, I know, but this subject is near & dear to me. Seals have never been used on Corvair exhaust valve stems AFAIK. Seals would...

And that makes Mike my new best friend.

Hopefully Clark's does reopen as promised next week; I have given them a small fortune over the 40 years I have owned my '67 Monza. I live near Los Angeles and am lucky to have several alternate Corvair suppliers nearby, http://californiacorvairparts.com in Chino and https://mikescorvairparts.com in...

First time poster, just joined. Greetings from Torrance, near Los Angeles. I bought my '67 Monza in 1980, my first car. It's been dormant and buried in my garage for 19 years, but I'm about to move it outside and start working on it: 140 engine 4-speed. It will need tons of work, I'm sure the gas ta...
