William Wynne posted something to CorvAircraft about two months ago where he
said that even with a stock oil pan, if the engine was mounted level he'd
never seen a Corvair starve for oil at any angle normally found in an in
airplane, which I would assume would be 15 degrees or so, front to rear.

The KR forum is at 11:30 on Tuesday in tent 10.  Other than that I don't
know of anything in particular that KR folks are planning.  I'll only be
there for Tuesday myself.
