Now I'd bet on the "CHEVY II TUFF" Nova just because it has the 5.13 gears and with the dana 60 The Nova can launch at any rpm with out blowing the rear out!

Old nostalgic drag cars are the new wave, this thread is 140 pages long!
You can see some Arnie Beswick and Grumpy's toy's I think on page 2.

I'll throw my opinion in too. I have a 70 Nova with a 427 in it. Not quite an L88, but close. It is a blast to drive, so I would lean towards leaving the L88 in the car. Do what has to be done to get the original driveline and store it. When (if) you ever get tired of the big incher, put it back to all original. In the meantime, beat the crap out of it.

Do we even know if John is keeping this car or not? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Probably as many people that oooh & aaaah over a primer colored car with an anemic small block and skinny little "girlie man" tires..... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Ha! Put 'em up TommyBoy - let's have a race https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif I have it on video of the ooohs & aaahs from last years SCR - 13.505 at 104+mph on those skinny whitewalls https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Go back to stock with this thing, it's got paperwork, orig. driveline can be had, and it's a cool color - leave the 'redneck racer' look in the past where it belongs!!
