[V8Vairs] mid engine conversion

[Bryan Blackwell]

Several non-Corvair transaxles have been discussed, and a few cars built with them.  The catch is that the Corvair transaxle has the pickup points for the suspension and the half shaft is the upper link, so making this change adds a significant task to the project.

As for the G body "frame under" conversion, several such cars have been built - the frame doesn't have to be shortened at all as I understand it.

Pretty sure there are a couple of examples on v8vairs.com.
