No

Hmmm. Joe Lunati ran some Corvair stuff...maybe it was him?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #36 on:** January 27, 2011, 05:06:23 PM »

While this vehicle had Corvair motive power, don't get dragged down by fixating on Corvair racing parts.

Was the person largely a camshaft manufacturer?

Lets try Harry Weber ......

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #44 on:** January 30, 2011, 12:22:42 PM »

Not him...

Aaron65 · « **Reply #45 on:** February 03, 2011, 04:45:56 PM »

I don't want to seem like I'm just making guesses, even though I am, but it seems that Bruce Crower was a pretty hands-on type of guy...maybe he built it.

Vincent Vell Vet · « **Reply #46 on:** February 03, 2011, 05:15:07 PM »

That's all I can do on this one too is just make guesses - rather not, but
howza-bout Mr. Isky?

EDIT; Sorry, somone else allready tried Isky.

Just for the helluvitt, here's a 'Vair powered Ultravan from '68.
Inspired from our mystery cam making Corvair powered Spartan owner? (The Spartan-air?

)

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #47 on:** February 03, 2011, 05:21:31 PM »

None of them.

The performance parts company name was not the guy's last name.

mymokke · « **Reply #48 on:** February 03, 2011, 06:12:53 PM »

So-Cal's Alex Xydias?

Vincent Vell Vet · « **Reply #49 on:** February 03, 2011, 06:24:47 PM »

Comp Cams is an old company, and I don't think there's a Mr. Comp.
