The big gag at the Corvair shows is to cut a piece of black plastic to look like an oil puddle and toss it under buddies engine and sit back and watch the reactions!

Lol!

At least with those engines you'll never have to fix coolant leaks....I blew a heater hose on my lincoln a while back and the leak quest afterwards lead my to spending this weekend changing a rather leaky frost plug in a one of the most tricky places they put one (it just has to be the hardest one to reach that fails).
