Re: 1968/69 Chevy Nova (stock eliminator)
Sorry I haven't responded to this thread as of late, but I had/have a family medical emergency going just now. I do enjoy the good info, though. I do know of the Holroyd rockers, had one in my hand to examine. They are beefy. I also remember someone's Nova going a 10.15 and thought it was the Lynch car, but wasn't sure and didn't know the combination involved. Bob, thanks for that info. I had a subscription to Nitro's stuff when I had the superstocker, but don't have any stats as of late. Actually I wasn't really looking for a Nova to build, it kinda just fell into my lap type of situation. Sounds to me like very few of these cars work well with the 375 engine. As I said I have all the proper castings for the smallblock combos. and with these cars traction problems that 350/300 engine sounds like the way to go. That would be an F natural car and I thought of bumping it to E, providing weight is not a problem. I don't know, since the rule change, if someone has tried E with the F natural car. I would bet all the E cars are 396/350 combos. Thanks all for the interest shown. It's interesting and enjoyable to me as well.
