I have part of one,an Engine. It was to have been pulled out of a Yenko Nova Same color combo as the feature Car, but orig. from Illinois.
A few list members know the Guy who pulled it 20 years ago or so. It sat in his Parents basement till last year.
It seems that the racers were upgrading to 454s soon after they were available.

Very nice car. I saw it when Randy Miller owned at at a car show at North Wilksboro Nascar track in the early 1990's. He had a Yenko Camaro there to. I'm sure its just as nice, looks it anyway. Just my $.

copo pete,
i would have to agree with you , but, of course i am a little biased. i've got to think theres no end to this car, and for that matter the other 6-9 as well.

AutoInsane,
It was raced for a while with the 454 and then it seems to have disappeared. There was however a Yenko Nova fitting the description roaming the area.
Several people have told me they thought the Nova Ended up with Gary Dyer. I don't know him so I haven't had the chance to ask.
I currently have no way to link the engine to a car other than the story, but so far everthing has checked out OK.
