<VV> Corvair engine codes (1965 RV = PG/AIR?)

[BBRT]

Just because a Monza has a 140 in later years,doesn't mean it is a Corsa. 
Corsa's were only badged and sold in 1965 and 1966. Any block can be in any 
model by this time. They can have a short stroke crank and comparable 
pistons etc and be a smaller engine..but the stampednumbers and head numbers 
won't tell you that.
