BSCC- Dropped seat

Fri Jun 21 21:36:21 EDT 2013

Before you do anything - what makes you think you lost a valve seat?  Noise?
Skipping? Both?  Do a compression check .  If you have no compression - then
it is definitely a dropped seat.  Best way to get your car running fast is
to get a hold of  set of heads that have had a valve job done and are ready
to go.  There is a set for sale on ebay

them is from San Diego and is a big Corvair nut.  He always has lots of
way-out engines and parts for sale.

Hey corvairers,

I think I dropped a valve seat in number 3 cylinder, any advice in the best
way to get her back running?
