I was reading the very interesting article in the Communique about the Corvair batteries and there is an important error in the article. The article concludes with a statement that there isn't an original Corvair battery available but in fact, the Delco battery is still available by special order at Chevy dealers. Delco part number is 557A.  I just ordered mine two months ago and it took about four weeks to deliver. As the article points out, the Delco brand lettering faces the wrong way in 61-64 cars; the label the on current battery still faces the wrong direction from the viewer unless you are employing it in a 1960 model...
