Historical Nova?

[markus37]

Just went back to the link from 2014 on this car....saw the block ID on the Yenko receipt...I can tell from my records the history of the block casting and machining.

I expect most here would jump @ the chance to have any cast by Yenko ZL1 'boat engine' blocks sitting on their engine stand also being good enough for da Grump says something too!
The subject style and Yenko crest casting are two but wasn't there one other or even more different main styles of Yenko cast ZL1 blocks also is there a known chronological order?

They made the Yenko crest blocks...the YENKO lettered blocks and also blocks that were not outwardly 'yenko'marked at all..also made various deck/ c.i combinations... Others may chime in that are more knowledgeable I'm sure

Thanks and that's what I understand of the Yenko blocks too but am wondering about their chronological order...blank styles first then Crests and YENKO letter style last or ???
Great info Markus and cool to hear you have info on the blocks shipped to Grump also thanks for sharing other inside info lately too!
Again other than sellers misleading description of timeline etc, the subject Nova is very cool and probably worth more marketed standing proudly on its own merits.

Pete, I agree whole heartedly......the Nova with that Engine ,especially in Black is wicked....but as you said , and my 'bashing the validity of the timeline as well as his advertising just ruined it for me.
I'm a &quot;Used Car Dealer&quot; brat....and his ad sucks ...
I dislike embellished content for profit. Standing on ..its own merits aside

The car and owner deserve one another.

It's a sharp looking car, but they need to get rid of the back wheels.
