Frank Payne, In my opinion you are right on. Love the novas but why build a BB nova for NHRA when the camaro is a better choice. ALL (I know a bold statement) BB camaros running in A/S are 375 horse cars. A tad lighter, aluminum heads without a penalty and rev much better than their big brother 427 cars. I don't recall seeing anybody at least in DIV-1 running a 427 in A/S. But....guys experiment all the time in Stock Eliminator. Ed Bednaz runs A or B Stick with his nova in DIV-1. Always a contender but I never saw that car in the nines with the weight out of it. He uses the 396 motor. Very fast, very competitive and a good driver!
