Netters;Very good information on the Corvair conversion in the current issue of Contact! magazine (No. 75). This is the so-called "all Corvair" issue and contains info on many aspects of the engine and conversion, including "philosophy", sources of supply for parts and services, and some interesting articless on redrives, thrust bearings, and the UltraVair 1/3 conversion (among others). Those on the KRNet and CorvAIRCRAFT list are already familiar with the work done by Mark Langford on his "Big Boy" conversion, but if you're not- there is an article in the magazine on that, too.I see in the EAA Experimenter from a month or two ago (I'm behind in my reading) that someone has purchased the rights to the Rinker redrive and is now marketing the redrive using new parts rather than relying on the old VW "alpine" axle box parts. I have no other details but do have questions if anyone knows... such as, does the new/improved box use a different cut of gears than the stocker? I thought I'd heard that the stock gearset has a bit of lash, and maybe the new gearset addresses that. The Rinker box does have the potential to expand the suitability of the Corvair to other airframes than in the direct-drive setup, but that's a whole 'nuther discussion. For now, if you don't subscribe to Contact!, at least get the all-Corvair issue. It's $8 until the next issue comes out, at which time it drops to $5 but you'll probably order more than just that one backissue once you see the listing of what's available.
