domestic lover's worst nightmare
 
There's not much to the video but still different nevertheless. Looks like they tossed a SSAC single snail mani on it though. :-\

I guess it would be a crime to the Z people to get a good 240 and make it a restomod, instead of just a full restoration. Also right now I have 3 cars, I have to get rid of one or two before getting into a new project, so if anyone wants it, let me know I guess I'll get you in contact with the guy.

Damn I thought that was the camera moving! Plus did you hear the exhaust note on that thing? It sounded like The Offspring! Now thats when a car should have a full exhaust...cat...resonator... and a extremely restrictive muffler.

why is a majority of streetfire.net anti-honda and pro-domestic

i like the domestic vs import battle. Everyone brings up the 2jzgtte. Thats a yamaha motor, as with any other toyota performance motor. just like the fwd v8 ford SHO engine. the vw 20v 1.8t and the audi 20v motors not sure if yamaha casts thoes or if VAG just bought the design off yamaha. Anyways, for drag racing theirs no replacement for static displacement.

Seen it on my local Honda forum. Thanks for the description!

Ew. Poor Nova... It's different but I like classic cars with the engines they came with. I'd be much happier with a supercharged 350 in there than that thing.

No ---- sherlock. I'd rather see a CHEVY engine in that CHEVY nova than an engine from a different automobile maker.

nah I think its somewhat professional drag or something, I'm not sure, it's not just a dyno queen though they take it to the track.

Yeah, keep talking out of your ass there smart guy. ::)

My stepdad has had Chevy II's and Roadrunner's for as long as I can remember. They didn't have V8 options.

If there are any other subjects you have no clue about, but like to comment on; feel free to expound.

plenty of people got v8s, even vette v8s into their novas through dealer options.

the funny thing is the link he posted just proves you right if you read it.




The V-8 Nova was first introduced into production during 1964. Previous to that, GM had started selling the V-8 conversion parts over the counter. The upgrade proved to be so popular, GM added it to their RPO (regular production option) list.

Wow, didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

I guess personal attacks are only allowed by you. ::) Keep grasping at the supposed power you have as an admin, it'll probably be the only place you're ever taken seriously.

Here's a list of dealer options for you big guy. From 1963. It has like 5 times the options of the 62.
http://chevy2only.com/index.php?modu...position=37:34

And these are just for 1963, I figure if it wasn't an option in 63, the likelihood of it being in a 62 is rare. Actually completely infeasible because it didn't happen. Just in case......

P.S. I'm not pretending.

those are factory options numbskull

Then find me a single dealer installed #'s matching Nova II from 1962 or 1963 w/ a 350 in it and I will personally fly to Washington and sign over everything I own. It would be hard considering the 'vette had a 327 CI in it until 1964.

Yeah, I'm the numbskull ::) Keep em comin' Pony Boy, I could do this all day.

BoosTedZSix 05-09-2006 04:31 PM

Re: domestic lover's worst nightmare
 
well per the link. there were DEALER options to put a 350 in it. Dealer does not equal factory.

Re-read it. It says they sold the parts over the counter for the V8 conversion. Not installed them at the dealership.

back to the op thread sence no one likes being proven wrong lol. that video was the lamest thing i have ever seen. they should stick to pictures. i do think that would be a sweet car if they crank up the boost and do everything right but. that car wasnt doing anything. its not cool till its done. till then its all talk.

Yes they did. Just like toyota dealerships install TRD super chargers. GM goodwrench installs their ----. Dodge dealers install the srt4 upgrade kits.

Like someones going to buy a brand new car and drop a v8 in ::) Just like when people used to buy the victory motorcycles from polaris and they would order the stroker kit. Its not a polaris factory option but its a dealership thing. ::)

J-SMITH69 05-09-2006 04:54 PM

Re: domestic lover's worst nightmare
 

Comments: The Chevrolet Chevy II was introduced in 1962 as a budget vehicle with a more conventional front engine, rear drive layout than the unusual Chevrolet Corvair. The Chevrolet Nova was the more upscale trim of the Chevy II. The first engines were definitely not sporty, a weak 194 I6 with 120 bhp. A 327 V8 engine swap was technically made available in the mid year as a dealer installed option, but the option added another 75% to the car's price and was not very popular.

Quoted from Super Chevy Magazine.
GM engineers went out of their way to make this difficult and displeasing to the mechanic, be it backyard or professional.

Look at it this way, the arguement was if a 350 was available(at least that was what my post was concerning), not a V8. The 350 was produced from 1969-2000. It is a physical impossibility for what Random and you say happened, actually did happen. It wasn't even in existence at the time.

1.) random strike did not say you could get the early novas with 350's. He simpy said

lofs of years of novas did come with 350s.
AND (thats a conjunction meaning he is going to state another fact, but the statement isn't nessicairly intertwined with the previous statement)

you could get 62-63 novas with v8s
2.) No where did I personaly make mention to a 350

J-SMITH69 05-09-2006 05:09 PM

Re: domestic lover's worst nightmare
 
Also, im suprised to hear the "fact" that the 350 engine was first produced in 1969.

thats pretty funny. did your dad with the sweet chevy II tell you that also????
