Re: New Project showed up today......
 
So,..........My grandson ended up with the &quot;Old&quot; Nova, and.....after driving the car around for two years he decided that he wants to upgrade it with a Heidt's front end.........add the A/C unit I bought (but never put in) back around 2000.....add some updated Gauges........maybe some more up to date pro touring type rims......and a more up to date Stereo System......and I think I will put in a more realistic camshaft while it's out.........So.....That's the New &quot;Old&quot; Project....By the way....the car ran a best of 10.92 @ 126 on drag radials in it's present form (on Spray).....

What does it run on nuts only?

What cam is in there now?

kwhizz 03-25-2013 08:32 PM

Re: New Project showed up today......
 
Never ran it on H.P.........Too much fun spraying (and trying to break it).......The camshaft was ground specifically for the car and spray by Comp Cams......Fast Burn Heads ....1.6 roller rockers.....700 R4.....had a 3.90 rear in the car and it would run 11.20's......changed to a 3.42 and it went right into the 10's....

Re: New Project showed up today......
 
There's so many different Chevy II aftermarket subframes out there but the Chris Alston Chassisworks unit is very, very nice. I've seen many from other manufacturers that used a crazy number of thickness shims where the upper braces meet the top of the firewall.
