Agreed. The photo page with the thumbnails is useless.

From what I can find the "4886" is the Airtex pn, not GM pn. Sounds shall we say a bit misleading at best....unless GM has licensed them.

They are a great idea despite the pundits. I have a 78 truck I bought new, still has the original clutch switch. My wife just retired a few years ago a 85 Blazer 300k miles, original clutch switch. For the once in a blue moon when a push start is needed still possible, just turn on ignition, roll and release clutch, easy to do. Much cheaper than that oh sh_t moment when someone hits the ke

Well...the short fuse edit timer (shorter than any of the other 10-12 forums I'm on) got me before I finished attaching my photos. So here are the visuals. ....and the oil filter adapter stayed on. Thanks, Mike

Mike Hall had a similar take with a one of a kind Corvair wrecker. He had it at the convention this year in Peachtree City.

MattNall Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Mike!!we need some pics! Matt, Check out the exhaust page below on Clark's website. Confirms that 67-69 w/smog used the larger 140 type exhaust and mufflers, just single muffler if a 110 engine. 64-69 We offer original oval style mufflers with "regular" size tail pipe (1 1/2")
Forum: Corvair Center Forum

One other idea. I didn't know it until I got my low miles 69 and started poking around on the exhaust and new mufflers. Unless I got something sideways even on the single exhaust they went to bigger pipes and muffler diameter for better flow with the smog pump installed. Thanks, Mike
