I think Coyote did a Chevy conversion at one time, but don't really know how successful it was. John Rodgers ------------------------- Clip --------------------------- Seems that the conversion frenzy will be with us for eternity. Over the years .......... I have purchased camshafts and distributor gear sets that allowed a Chevy V8, Corvair 6 to run backwards. The camshafts came from Harvey Crane, Crane Cams. Your engine doesn't care which direction it rotates it just has to have the special parts to do it. If you shop around you may still find some special application cams for marine use that allow you to run engines not on Frank Gs list. A few Emails to known high profile cam grinders will get you a list and referrals for these cams. I'm sure that many of the cam masters are still hanging on racks somewhere.
