I saw a car in the classifieds that has a Corvair 6 engine swap with the engine set up to run in the correct dirrection.I was wondering why we don't see this conversion very often.Seems like a pretty straight forward conversion.

I built a corvair 7 years ago. It can get expensive, when you start approaching the 200hp mark. IIRC I paid over $900 just for the roller rockers. Reversing the rotation wasn't too much though (considering the monies spent on broken transaxles). The tri-port heads where big $$$$ also. Custom header, the list goes on and on, But the torque was incredible.
