<VV> Nutty lunatic or loony nut needs CASE

[Jeff Boatright]

Hi all,

While we're discussing the all-consuming question of "Am I nuts or is 
this lunacy?" (a question that my wife frequently asks of me), I'd 
like to put out a request for a 1965-69 case (or complete engine). 
I'm one of those nutty loons or loony nuts who plans to convert a 
Corvair engine for use in an airplane. I got an engine through this 
list several months ago (thanks!), but it turns out that the case was 
not good enough for aero use. Not to fear, it's already gone to 
someone for use in an auto resto.

So, does anyone local to Atlanta have a 1965-69 case or entire engine 
for cheap? Usually these have an "R" for the second to last digit in 
the engine case code, for example, RR, RD, RA, RH. A 1964 case or 
engine will do if had the long stroke crank and the internal 
clearance for it, e.g., a a "relieved" case.

Thanks much for any input, even if only to confirm my wife's worst fears!

Jeff
