Re: 1969 Yenko Nova
There is no question that some of the 37 Novas were converted to 427 cars. There are some well documented examples. Vince Emme said years ago that 30 of the 37 were converted to 427s. Unfortunately we don't have his paperwork, but certainly some of the Yenko sold cars were not converted. It maked sense that the distributed cars were converted, no reason to get a 396 Nova shipped in from Yenko.
Many Yenko Camaro orders were being cancelled mid-year. One can only imagine how hard it was to sell 427 Novas given the insurance issues performance car buyers were facing.
