Marcus Smith’s Corvair engine, What became of that? Options

[DaveO90s4]

Whilst I never met Marcus he and I exchanged numerous emails about 914’s, Corvair engines and life before his passing in early 2021.

Some of you may remember he was building a 3.2l Corvair engine for his 914 but unfortunately was never able to hear it running. He sold it shortly before his passing.

Does anyone here know what became of Marcus’ engine? Is it roaring into life in Marcus’ honour?

I do so miss his emails.

Thanks

This morning when I saw the OP I searched and found Marcus (R3dplanet) had last posted in October. I knew he was getting progressively sicker. In his signature block, he had the following link:

God bless you, Marcus. I never met you, but I liked that you had an offbeat sense of humor and didn't run with the herd. I used your throttle body rebuild thread to do mine which helped me a lot.
