Re: December feature car ...... COPO PETE's Nova
I purchased a Yenko Deuce clone, not long ago. It had an M22 from a Corvette, a 4:10 or 4:11 posi rear from a 1697 Chevy Nova and a 350 built to LT1 specs.
Other than finding belts to stay on for the 7200 rpm speed shifts, the car was plain wicked. It launched, hooked better than most any "stock" car I have owned or driven.
While I never ran it at the track, I did line it up against my GT 500 KR.
The Shelby wasn't a match,it lost. The Nova did have headers and fair BF T/As plus much better gearing.
My car buddies and I all believed that mid 12 second 1/4 miles would be no problem.
It was one awsome package.
