Thanks for all the replies.

On an unrelated note, I’ve recently acquired a used Summers Brothers spit axle that is 1” longer than the corvair axle I was hoping to pair it up with (since I broke the other corvair axle). Am I asking for trouble to run this set up of unequal length axles? Seems the upright on the longer axle will just “lean in” to reach the leaf spring eye and it might just work. Or should I have the longer axle cut down and new u-joint yoke spline grooves cut?

I think you call this racing on a budget.

Moss is carrying on the HVDA conversion but he’s been told they will only be offering one clutch disk option which appears to be street grade. I believe Herman offered an upgrade, anyone know what it was or where to get it?
