Yes, but the same engine was also optional in the Monza. Note that in my
previous post I said that the Corsa was $74.20 worth of dash panel. Actual
sticker difference was $169, of which $79 was the cost difference from the
base 95hp engine to the 140hp engine, and the rest was the cost of a clock.
So the bottom line is that the base Monza, with the 140hp engine option and
optional clock was (mechanically, and otherwise) identical to the base
Corsa, with the exception of the $74.20 worth of dash panel and trim.

Correct Mark - But those dash differences mean a lot. Both the big
Tachometer and a cylinder head temperature gage are part of the option, plus an
overtemp warning buzzer on the turbos. Most performance Corvair guys think those
gages are "must-haves", as witnessed by how many folks add them, whether by
installing a Corsa dash or individual aftermarket instruments . - Seth Emerson
