Squeezing a regularly aspirated motor into the engine bay of an FC is tricky business. The lid sits lower, so space is at a premium compared to the cars. Russ Thulen’s Rampside powerplant has done tricky and gone a couple steps beyond. It’s got a turbo AND an air-conditioning compressor. This install is so cool. It must be a blast to open the hatch and show off this exquisite example of shoehorning.
Many thanks to Bryan Blackwell and his extensive Corvair website for hosting this photo and the page on turbocharging Corvairs.
