MY FIRST EVER BUILD. This is the project that got me into being a mechanic.
1970 Chevy II Nova
$300 for the rolling chassis
$300 For a Fresh TH-350 Auto Transmission
$2600 in high performance parts from SUMMIT Racing
355CI Chevy V8
13.5 Hypereutectic Pistons
Oversized valves, ported cast iron heads
High lift/duration Crane cam
Roller tip Crane rockers
850cfm Edelbrock double pumper
Edelbrock RPM intake manifold
Hooker Headers with electric cut-outs to 2 3/4" tube to twin magnaflow mufflers with 4 turndowns pre-axle. Yummy.
Twisted the frame in half in 2 seasons of bracket racing in Pomona. Apparently the soft body Nova can't handle 485 ft. lbs. for 12.38 seconds to 121 mph 20 time in a row....
Loved that car, but had to sell it... The choices in life you wish you could take back...
