I really love this thing! An old friend in Portland used to sell the V-8 kits and do complete cars back in the late 70's. I always wanted to do one. Oh well add this to the list of 1000 plus I won't get around to .
Have you posted this on www.ls1tech.com in hybrids and conversions?

Reason: addition
The conversion has a long history, I remember seeing one in 1975. This is my second V8 914,car. I also had a 1966 Corvair convertible with a mid engine 350 chev. & set up with a CROWN KIT, so I'm stuck with mid-engine & Chevrolet's !!!!!!!!!!
My first looked nice but didn't have the good bones this one does.
I do have a build thread on LS1tech.com
This is the only photo I have of my V8 Corvair
Got it running, have temp mufflers in but am driving the car after a base alignment and trying to get the spring rate right along with the engine tune correct.
