John Bubka has a nice blue '66 post Nova in Div 1. C/S 327/350 four-speed car. NHRA has it de-rated to 300 HP now.

Thanks for the photo. The 300hp sounds good except the one thing that, in my opinion, kills them, is the small carburetor. The compression and heads do you little good with the small carburetor. A 275 hp with the Q-Jet would be about as fast, at one time they ran F/S. With the 350hp you would have to run a 4 speed as that was the only way they were sold. Food for thought.

Jim,
You're welcome. I think there was a discussion on here a while back about the 585 cfm carb being the problem with the 350hp combo. I've also heard that there might be a current Super Stocker working on this combo as we speak.

I'd still like to give one a good try before I belly up, but to run with a legal carburetor looks hard.

Mr. Rice, you are right we are that current Super Stocker working on this combo surrounded by great individuals including Mike Roth MR2 Performance, The Wescott's and Mike Keown Racing. We are looking forward to this venture with all of these guys should be alot of fun and I think there is a Mustang waiting for me lol! We will be campaigning the 327/275/299HP for the beginning of the year and have the 350HP w/Holley ready for Indy.
