<VV> Porsche 911 Engine in EM

[HallGrenn@aol.com]

An old friend of mine, Rainer Wetzling, is a German Porsche/VW expert 
mechanic (certified by both firms).  He did his Porsche factory certified training 
course at the Porsche factory in Zuffenhausen when the 911 was in its final 
development.  He told me how suprised he was to see the Corvair EM station wagon 
that was used as a "mule" for the new 911 engine (apparently for on road 
driveability testing and all weather dependability).  A flat six in a Corvair wagon 
kept the 911 body out of spying eyes and was just another Corvair to the 
average driver.  So you see, Porsche tried the reverse swap first.
