<VV> 5 speed tranny?

[FrankCB]

Just tell us what RPM reading you get at 60 mph while in "overdrive" gear.
I thought the "Super Spyder" was the one that had the twin turbos.<GGGG>

Here's a  note a got from someone who is parting out a lot of 
Corvairs...anything to it,  or is it like one of the rare 4  cylinders? 
Thanks,

<...and for a fact there is a five  speed, got one in fact, they were not 
full production, but were built, mine,  as the story goes, came out of a 63 
Spider SS (Super Spider) and only five  were built, this one was totalled and the 
only think that was even rebuildable  was the tranny. But even if it is a retro 
fit, it would have to be a very good  one, there are most definatly five 
speeds, (or 4 speeds and an over drive) and  it bolted right on to my 180hp 1966 
motor block  ..> 



Several appropriate photos would settle the confusion.
