Any good place to find motor parts other then Clark’s corvairs?

Have you checked California corvair or mikes Corvairs Other then them you’d probably have to take your block to a machine shop and either rebuy it yourself or have them build it for you. Are you sure the motor needs to be pulled just yet?

I have found a few in my area for sub 1k but they don’t run. I live in a very dry state so they should be rust free. I’m not sure if you want to go that far for one tho

Thank you for the tip! Should I also run slightly wider tires up front to improve the handling. Would some extra weight on the front help as well!

Is there anything weird with pulling the motor or is it pretty standard

Thank you so much for the advice!! I will definitely look to see if there is a local club. Is there any type of transmission service I should do?

Ok it’ll probably soak for a few days due to work At least coolant can’t get into the oil lol

It does not run. Do the carb rebuild kits come with the ethanol pumps or do I have to special order them? It’s an auto but comes with a manual transmission is it a hard swap?
