Many, but not all of the Nickey Super Car conversions from later in 1967-1970 were either L78s or Z28s. Most also had factory 4 series posi.

1971-1973 SSs and Z28s were most prevalent.

1974-1977 Just about anything goes. Even 6 cly conversions.

I too would like to know where the A/C story came from. It certainly was not a common practice.

Hopefully both Don Swiatek and Ronnie Kaplan as well as a few other techs/ Nickey personnel and VIPs, will be at the Fall Vest Fest to answer questions and bench race with the patrons.
