Only question is the breather hose...the 1970 models used a low profile intake manifold, and the hose was shaped to allow for the lowered air filter base.

The CKQ indicated a HD clutch with the L78 application...a rare item from my experience. Also, I have never seen the valve cover sticker on a BB Nova.

Also, pretty sure the Nova valve cover [drivers side] had a small indent for the booster.

Tom, When are you going to send me photo's of your original Nova BB drivers side valve covers so I can verify them or you could post a photo here of the drivers side & the location of the top rear plug wire stand.
