<VV> Turbo conversion?

[Bryan Blackwell]

Hi Grant,

I'd suggest that he look into a Safeguard as well.  That would remove  
the need for a turbo distributor.  There are a number of other things  
that turbo owners have done, to some extent my question is "does he  
want a stock Corvair turbo engine, or does he want to turbo a Corvair  
engine?"  Those two things are different.  I have a Turbo page he  
might want to look at as well:
