Purple People Eater...lol...
 
Well I traded my dragster for a Nova. Its a 70 back half car that I will run in Super Street and No box stuff next year when I have to give my borrowed Nova back...

It went 8.45 @ 155 with a blower motor, my 408 should run 10.0's, but I think I am going to throw my 360 in it just to get some laps. Might run mid 11's I guess.

where did the scoop go?

I972Nova 07-31-2009 03:35 PM

It came with 2 hoods, the cowl thats cut out for blower and the big crazy hood that will clear the blower. Neither one will do anything for me, I have a third hood for it too, but its blue. Oh well...

very nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you know the weight yet with the small block?

I972Nova 10-15-2009 06:55 PM

Thanks Guys... It is 2600 with the alum headed small block and no driver. My other BackHalf Nova (the blue one) is 2680 with the same motor and No driver.

The purple one is also for sale or trade over in the classifieds. I am looking for something lighter or even a dragster.

love the color Josh! Besides Camaro's, Nova's are my second favorite from the late 60's, early 70's...
