I have a full set of wheel pants and fairings which I will be installing
soon. I was just kidding about changing engines to an 0-360. Right now,
there is no way I would give up the Corvair. My plane is about as slick
as owl shit and wheel pants are about the only thing that will make it
any slicker. I still think I need a higher pitched prop.

If you go the PR type I wouldn't expect an 8 to 10 knot increase in
speed. That comes from a design with a lot more HP designed to cruise at
a lot higher speed. I would however expect 5.

I picked up about 12 MPH with gear leg fairings over Diehl gear and
wheel pants on 2180 powered KR-2...
