This goes along with what Pete indicated in an earlier post. I have not been able to locate where I thought I saw some production numbers for the L89 but I had written down 3-6 with a question mark next to it. I'm still looking. I don't know a lot about Novas and I was helping a friend research a possible purchase however I was under the impression that basically GM offered the same engine types for both the Nova and the Camaro.

I'll keep looking and if I find something more conclusive I'll post. This thing is starting to bug me now.
