"Richard Guess 1961 Corvair 500 coupe with a Blown 327 Chevy SB. This was a feature car the June '72 Car Craft magazine."   Don't know what it handled like but it sure looks the BIZ! And also what appears to be a similar one  Seems kinda strange to see a blown engine in the back like that. Anymore (none VW)?

thats nice.... mr ralph nader would have gone into a coma had he seen that.... very very cool.... don't think much of the others tho.... and yeah seth , the corvair is mentioned in the turbomania book for that, pretty sure they were draw thru, they had a supposed 5psi rule for blow thru saying that anymore would either blow the carb appart or cause the fuel to become unsuspended and fat..... basically whichever excuse for not trying fitted that week lol
