Carbs for Our Corvair
Jun 23, 2010 update to the Chevrolet Corvair Monza Spyder project car
We got our Corvair back on the road after the transmission disaster that kept the car from running in the Orange Blossom Tour. We also upgraded to a Weber carb conversion. Available through Clark’s Corvair Parts, the Weber conversion gives our Carvair’s turbo the power it was meant to have. So far, we’re very pleased with both the ease of the conversion and the performance it has given us.

- I owned a turbo Corsa for 7 years in the 70's. I didn't know enough then to get the best out of it, but when it ran right it was actually pretty fast. I always found that eliminating the pressure retard and backing off the intial advance the same amount the unit retarded the timing, made the car a little weaker on the bottom but much better from 3,000 on. I always wanted to try a weber but that was way out of my league at the time. I can hardly believe you guys took on this project but I am really curious as to how it runs now.
