Default Re: Yenko Stinger

Nice pictures Rick and its an interesting oil cooler. The oil must get hot in the Corvair. In the Yenko Stinger road test in Car and Driver magazine they show a huge oil cooler Yenko mounted on top of the rear fender like on an Indy Car of that era. The story goes that the other drivers protested it because they were affraid it would fall off. In 1967 SCCA wrote a rule to prohibit that oil cooler and Yenko had to change it.
