Since we're playing games how about this one -

What are the greatest Corvair improvements? I have 3.
1)Viton O rings
2) Pertronix electronic Ignition
3) Bolted flywheels (also Palmer hot riveted flywheels)

What would you add to the list?
The rules -

The impovement MUST solve a recognized Corvair problem. That's why, for 
example, radial tires (often on this list) doesn't count. While they 
make the Corvair handle better, the Corvair did not have a handling 
problem prior to thier acceptance. This also rules out synthetic oil 
(sorry Amsoil pushers) because the use of regular motor oil is NOT a 
Corvair problem.

The improvement MUST fix a general problem common in both earlies and 
lates. So magnesium blower fans and alternator charging systems, while 
critical improvements to early model Corvairs wouldn't count.

The improvement must be aftermarket - Taking the 2 examples just 
mentioned, those were upgrades provided by the factory on subsequent years.

Rule #4, is the most important. You cannot spend the next 2 weeks and 
400 posts arguing about the rules.

I can defend my choice of 3

I'm curious if I've left something off my list?
