I was looking at an old book I have: Auto engines for Exp. aircraft by Richard Finch 1986 era and in the back page 175 there is an add from Gyrodynamics selling prints to build your own planetary gear drive's and also corvair chain drive's. The company was based out of Redlands California. also there was plans for Duel plug corvair heads. As a corvair engine converter for my KR-2 I've never read or heard about these option from Mr. Wynne or Mr. clapp, leading supplier's of corvair conversions. Does any one know if they are still being used in aircraft ? or can plans still be purchased for the systems? I see that they were available for VW power plants also. It would be of great interest to me to learn the technique of Duel plugs on my motor. Don
