Warren told me he has paperwork on a bunch of Novas sold by Yenko and thinks 3 of them were converted to 427.

He also had paperwork on at least three SS396 Novas sold by Yenko that are known cars.

I spoke with him recently to see if his paperwork shows anything on the 4:10 rear.

On the power team charts for a 1969 SS 396 Nova the highest RPO gear is 3:55.

In the ads and other information it shows the 427 Nova's with 4:10 gear.

Two of the Yenko Nova's are said to have a BV code rear (4:10) but I don't know if they are original to the car.

I would think Yenko would have done a COPO or special order to have the car factory built with 4:10 gears so he didn't have to change out the gear sets.

I don't know if Chevy allowed him to get the 4:10 on the 1969 Nova SS396 but he did get the COPOs for the 1970 LT-1 Nova (Deuce)
