| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Porsche 928 - Design The 928 featured a large, front-mounted and water-cooled, V8 engine driving the rear wheels. Originally displacing 4.5 L and featuring a single overhead camshaft, it produced 219 hp (163 kW/222 PS) for the North American market and 240 PS (176 kW/237 hp) in other markets. Porsche upgraded the engine from mechanical to electronic fuel injection in 1980, although power remained the same. This design marked a major change in direction for Porsche (started with the introduction of the 924 in 1976), whose cars had until then used only rear- or mid-mounted air-cooled fl ...

| | | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Ford Falcon - Falcons in Argentina In Argentina, Falcons closely resembling the 1960s North American Falcons were built until the early 1990s. Green Falcons became infamous due to their use by death squads during the military dictatorship of the 1970s and early 1980s.
The Falcon retained the same body style, with a more substantial facelift taking place in the 1980s, bringing it into line with other Fords. However, by then, it was apparent that it was a 1960 design wearing a 1980s grille. The station wagon ...

There he signed up for the electrical curriculum. The young DeLorean found the Cass experience to be exhilarating, and excelled at his studies. His chemistry teacher was Evangeline Lodge Land, mother of eminent pilot Charles Lindbergh.

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - John De Lorean - Delorean DeLorean or De Lorean? De Lorean's name is most often seen spelled without the space, as DeLorean. Typewritten documents of the De Lorean Motor Company universally used the space, however, and this appears to have been the company's chosen form. In typeset documents, a half space, not a full space, appears between the two portions, and the same is visible in more stylistic representations, as on the automobiles themselves. This use of a ...

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Ford Falcon - Falcons in North America Historically, the Big Three auto manufacturers, (GM, Ford and Chrysler), focused purely on the larger and more profitable vehicles in the US and Canadian markets. Towards the end of the 1950s, all three manufacturers realised that that former strategy would no longer work. Large automobiles were becoming increasingly expensive thanks to wage inflation, making smaller European cars such as Volvos and Volkswagens increasingly attractive. Furthermore, many American families were now in the market for a second car, and market research showed tha ...

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Hippie - Hippy Neo-hippies or simply hippy is a name given to turn of the 21st century youths who still believe in the hippie philosophy from back in the day. Dreadlocks — especially with beads sewn into them — remain popular amongst neo-hippies.
Much like their 1960s counterparts, the peace and justice theme continues. Especially with antiwar demonstrations in the wake of the Gulf War II, and ...

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Hippie - Politics Hippies often participated in peace movements, including peace marches such as the USA marches on Washington and civil rights marches, and anti-Vietnam War demonstrations including the 1968 Democratic Convention. Yippies represented a highly politically active sub-group.
By 2005 standards, they're prone to hedonism and pacifism. The culture has also rapidly embraced postfeminist and mostly postmodern "principles" in wake of the twenty-first century.
Though hippies embodied a counterculture movement, early hippies were not particularly tolerant of homosexuality. Acceptance of homosexuality grew with the culture and by today's standa ...

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Hippie - Drugs Driven by the appeal of the Sixties "psychedelics guru", Harvard professor Timothy Leary, who advocated use of these drugs as a form of mind expansion, many hippies participated in recreational drug use, particularly marijuana (see cannabis, cannabis (drug), and hashish) and hallucinogens such as LSD (see both psychedelic and psychedelic drug) and psilocybin (see Psychedelic mushroom). Some hippies prize marijuana for its iconoclastic, illicit nature, as well as for its psychopharmaceutical effects. Although some hippies did not use drugs, drug use is a trait often ascribed to hippies. Some hippies used drugs to express their di ...

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Hippie - Legacy By 1970, much of the hippie style, but little of its substance, had passed into mainstream culture. The media lost interest in the subculture, as it went out of fashion with younger people and even became the target of their ridicule with the advent of punk rock. However, many hippies made, and continue to maintain, long-term commitments to the lifestyle. As of 2005, hippies are found in bohemian enclaves around the world or as wanderers following the bands they love. Since the early 1970s, many rendezvous annually at Rainbow Gatherings. Others gather at meetings and f ...

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Hippie - Pejorative connotations The term hippie has also been used in a derogatory sense, to describe long-haired unkempt drug users. Among those of the Beat Generation, the flood of youngsters adopting Beatnik sensibilities, appeared to be cheap, mass-produced imitations of the Beatnik artist community. By Beat standards, these newcomers were not "clever" enough to really be "hip". On the other hand, conservatives used the term hippie as an insult toward young adults whom had a leftist, liberal, and other progressive outlooks on life. Bands members like the Beatles defied ...

| | | | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Turbocharger - Design details When a gas is compressed, its temperature rises. It is not uncommon for a turbocharger to be pushing out air that is 90 °C (200°F). Compressed air from a turbo may be (and most commonly is, on petrol engines) cooled before it is fed into the cylinders, using an intercooler or a charge air cooler (a heat-exchange device).
A turbo spins very fast, most peak between 80,000 and 150,000 rpm depending on size (using low inertia turbos, 190,000 rpm), weight of the rotating parts, boost pressure developed and compressor design. Such ...

| | | | | Chevrolet Corvair: Encyclopedia II - Mid-size car - Europe Australia & New Zealand Cars in Europe's equivalent category to North America's mid-size are generally known as family cars or large family cars (small family cars are North American compacts), whereas Australia and New Zealand also use the mid-size label. European and Australasian mid-size/family cars are usually a little smaller than the North American norm, even from the same manufacturer. For comparison, the 1998 Ford Taurus weighed around 1500 kg, had a 2757 mm wheelbase, and was powered by a 3.0 L V6 engine, whereas a 1998 Ford Mondeo weighed around 1300 kg, ...
