Corvair engine swap, Tell me why this isn't popular Options

[914rat]

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'm afraid the gene pool on this site is getting pretty stagnant.Shooting down other options without any hands on knowledge dosen't help us learn.I lurk here a lot and don't say much due to the parrots that keep reiterating the same thing over and over.

Were you previosly registered as Alpha or red? Responses like that are not going to help you in the least. I thought most of the replies were good, it's too bad you don't have an open mind to consider them. The way you are going, if you do a project, you might end up with 2 or 3 people helping you out.

Most of the responses were good ! There are always a few that would be better off not saying anything.As far as openminded, that is why I asked this not so popular question, because I am openminded and wanted to know why this wasn't popular.I'm not looking for an argument when I ask a question I'm looking for constructive feedback.Don't worry about me finding help with a build I have 2 that I have done on my own.Part of my problem isn't with this thread but the way SOME members treat newbies and topics not blessed by the sponsors or megaposters on the forum. I figure the ones that do either know who they are or don't care.The ones that don't wouldn't take it personally.I did recieve some PM's that agreed with me.So evidently I am not alone in my thoughts.There is a wealth of knowledge here in the archives and classic threads.There are also a lot of very thoughtful and caring people here I usually give everybody the benefit of doubt.Since we haven't formally met.My name is LaDon I am a 914aholic.1971 1.7 now 1911 in final stages of resto,1974 2.0 now 2056 my resto driver,1973 2.0 east coast rust bucket but complete,early 1973 1.7 roller and 1974 2.0 roller with gt flairs.After 5 years and 200 posts I guess I finally pissed someone off ,well it was bound to happen sooner or later.Back to lurking I guess.
