According to this the Corvair Spyder Turbo was a month BEHIND the Olds motor. It makes sense that Turbos would premire under the Olds brand first.
This article corroborates it

Both were introduced in spring of '62, I'm not arguing over a few weeks.

Both cars were introduced in April. The Jetfire was introduced April 20th, but I do not know when the cars were build. The earliest build date Monza Turbos I've seen so far were built in April.

So, if I edited that article to indicate otherwise you'd believe it, amirite?
Both cars were introduced in April. The Jetfire was introduced April 20th, but I do not know when the cars were actually built. The earliest build date Monza Turbos I've seen so far were built in April. Several sources indicate the Monza was ahead by a few weeks.

If you did without citing a source it would be reverted back to the way it was rather quickly. Editing wiki pages without providing evidence to your claims doesn't result in anything being changed for more than a minute or two.
