I live in Yuma, Az so elevation is around 300ft but summer bring temps up to 120F and density altitude also increases dramatically during that time of year. As far as the Corvair engines go, has anyone had issues finding them?

If you decided to go the converted auto engine route I suggest you plan a few extra years in your build program for the engine.
