new e-bay record set for five blade nova fan?
ebay item number# 70189439743
L-78 nova five blade, sold for $1,175.00 maybe the other e-bay nova five blade fan purchased for $750.00 was a good investment.

Re: new e-bay record set for five blade nova fan?
big number for that considering most BB Nova fans had flat rivets, never saw an original for 69,70 with round rivets, but anything is possible I suppose

Re: new e-bay record set for five blade nova fan?
Isn't this blade supposed to have a "W" stamped on it to be correct? The seller does not state if it has any markings at all.

Re: new e-bay record set for five blade nova fan?
I have an original on my desk now and just took photos of the original off our survivor 70...they both have the flat rivets.....it also appears if there is a slight recess (almost a coutersunk area) at each fan bolt hole. May just be from being bolted on the engine but it looks like it is machined into the part. Maybe I can swap a 5 blade fan for an 837 alternator...or 499 distributor....

Re: new e-bay record set for five blade nova fan?
I was watching this fan also, of course with no intention of bidding, little much for my pocketbook right now.. BIG MONEY for a fan!!! I guess these things are just rare pieces just like the LS6/L78 dual snorkel air cleaners that command these kind of prices!! They were taken off/disposed of back in the day and replaced with flex fans for racing.. I was a little concerned over the feedback from the seller.. Did anyone look at this?? Seems there were some other unhappy buyers of parts..
