Default Re: One of the "Infamous" L89 Nova's

The CBW rears have the heat treated stuff, but otherwise they are not really that 'special', ie; no special posi unit, clutch pak, springs, plates - none of that stuff that you would find on a 'BE' coded ZL1 rear. So, I believe that the CBW code was unique due to the 4.10:1 ratio going into a '70 Nova - in '69 this application would not have needed a special code (would have probably just been a BV code), but in '70 it was special, and therefore was part of the COPO (most likely #9737, not #9010).
