I've read the various Corvair threads here on the world over the years and found them extremely interesting and informative. What I can't seem to find is a video of a 914 running a Corvair motor...or even a build thread that went to completion. I'd like to see or read someone's experience/impressions about the transplant once it's done and drivable.

Do these unicorns exist?
