Yes, B or C I would assume. I guess a 70 camaro is heavier than the 70 nova. There is one guy who runs a 1966 L79 nova (post car), he is in C/S. Again, a nice guy and a nice car but not to competitive. The factory hp rating kills them. I think??, NHRA rates his 350hp to something like 290-300, maybe less I just can't remember what his window sticker said. The Q-jet, cast iron intake 350's are just plane killer in those lower classes. A,B,C Stock is usually a BB in a camaro or nova. A 350/295 camaro was running D/SA this weekend. He gets a little break also. I think NHRA rates him at 290 or so. Jerry M's 67 Z/28 is rated at 309 hp by NHRA. He runs D or can run C and that is against the BB's. He was going 50's all weekend and so were the C/S 375 horse BB's.

Sam, the 302 & 396 use the same carb. The 350hp-327 use a SMALL HOLLEY 585 cfm can't compete against a 800 cfm carb.

Bruce B. @ NHRA is in my address book, so I shot him off some info (thanks, Pete!) Thursday...we'll see what he says.

Marlin: if you've got any LT-1 Nova related paperwork from the Chevrolet side, I'm sure it would help...

NADA, Just the reference to COPO 9010 - which is where we left off last time waiting for GM to give a detailed breakdown of the COPO and which vehicle(s) (Novas) it applied to.

If the '08 Cobra Jet 'Stangs qualified for A/ and AA/Stock, I don't understand what the problem is with an LT-1 Nova. It's not like there haven't been lots of super low production cars in Stock in the past.
