This is a schnieder cammed,ported Vega engine on 12 PSI Boost. It uses a Corvair Corsa turbo in a "draw through" design.
The rubber hose you see expanding and contracting is just a radiator hose we used to fire it up. That is being replaced with hard tubing.
The nasty idle is the cam..I am going to have to run it at about 1000 rmp idle.
Boost comes on at 1200rpm. Any questions,just email me.
I have been keeping Vega engines in vegas for years.

Home built electric utility vehicle update
Its the nerdiest thing I have ever built but its for taking to the campgrounds with the wife because we are too lazy to walk everywhere. If it being electric helps the enviornment one bit let it be known that I will sneak up and run over a spotted owl if I ever see one.
I have seats and a cargo box that mounts on the vehicle and the front will tinned up in aluminum before it gets painted

This is a walk around of one of my Vegas. It no longer has the cragar wheels because I could not get new tires for them..sadly they had to go.I installed a set of Chrome Spider rims and 205 60 13 Yokahama tires.

73 Chevrolet Vega GT - 140 cubic inch - 2.3L --- Dash Cam Curves
Rebuilt head getting a good testing. Old rusty glass pack muffler provides quite a rumble...... must be from the windshield/dash acoustics.... car isn't really that loud. I have a NOS Vega/Pinto replacement Thrush muffler to replace it one day.
1974 Chevy Vega Hatchback Wht
In remarkable condition! Surprisingly, it has A/C too...it has escaped the rust demons. The engine on these cars gave the car a bad start...most problems were corrected by 1974 except the tendency to rust badly. The direct competition would be the Ford Pinto.
