Were all engines set to rotate the same way? I suspect either the
Studebaker was a reverse rotation engine from the factory or maybe they
special ordered the Corvair motors as reverse rotation engines. It would be
easy to tell if someone could get close to that thing and see which way the
distributor rotor turned, where the timing marks were, was it a reverse
rotation blower on top, too? etc.
