Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension >2. We show that there are metrics h conformal to g and of volume 1 such that the first positive eigenvalue the conformal Laplacian is arbitrarily large. A similar statement is proven for the first positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator on a spin manifold of dimension >1.
