I have kicked around the idea of building a Corvair engine. Where in Michigan is Roy's? If I could cut my schedule I sure would enjoy helping / learning / goffer getting.
I dont know the Corvair in aircraft form but I have built some pretty nice motors including my 454 that's bored,stroked,balanced and blueptinted to a 492 in my 6 ton vintage Airstream motorhome. I enjoy my GPAS Vw 2180 but I know a 6 cyl is far smoother than a 4 banger. Figured that out back in the Continental 0300D days verse Lycoming 4 banger. It's a wild thought. Heck I cant seem to get away from my business long enough to sneeze the last 14 plus years. Not sure how I could get back up to Michigan for a weekend ? But, I'm from up that way. Either way I might be interested in your short block to replace my 2180.
