Hi,

Going from memory here, but on the old forum there was someone who was trying to get a Corvair approved who went to some trouble to get the crank nitrided by someone in the motorsports business. I am going to connect this to Steve Bryan but not sure why?

Regards,

Colin

Well remembered Colin!

Yes, I had some Corvair crankshafts plasma nitrided by Eltro Ltd. They are based in Farnborough.
