This is such a cool build...very fun to read through!

A quick question for clarity.. in the first post you stated "The engine will be the 262 V8 rated at 165."

Then on page two you stated "Depending on the grill/year, it can run a 350 2v, 350 4v, and a 305 2v"

Just curious what the combo is?

Love the "different" cars and unusual combo's which is strange to say about a sbc! LOL!

Here's a chart that lays out the Stock classes for all the 75-79 x-body Novas. Mikes reference was to the fact that the only identifying difference from year to year is grille and badging, so you could claim a particular year for the body by changing to the correct grille and trim.

Dwight, the 76 "stick" is 275 hp

Correct, Bill. I believe the classification is correct, but I missed the title in the chart. Thanks!!

The 78 & 79 are also 275, but the title in the chart is incorrect.

No, I realised that Dwight, I was wondering what his actual combo was, not the options he had. Looking at your chart and seeing U/SA in his signature means he must currently be running the 262/165hp combo though.

Thanks
