Re: L89 Nova???????
That's true in some cases. The prevailing thought among most Nova people is that the most likley time line for L89 novas would be 68, but best chance would be 69 for significant nbrs. That beggs the question that if Fred Gibb, who was as plugged into GM performance as he was to build the 68 COPO autos, why didn't he order them with al. heads. That's 60#s off the nose.
There is no code specific suffix for al. heads in 68, 69 Nova applications. Could they have shared one with the Camaro? Maybe, but it seems unlikley. To the best of my knowledge, no window stickers have been found with the al. head RPO option on any Nova, while many are known for Camaros, and Chevelles.
I've seen invoices that show a cost for al. heads on Novas, but this always seems to lead to a dealer installation.
Now, you're preachin to the choir here, as I believe there may have been some produced, but we simply haven't found any that pass all the criteria.
