Love that nova. Quick question, what size wheel spacers are you using?
Also what subframe connector do you have on car. Thanks

Thank you. I'll have to measure but I think they are 2" in the front and 3/4" in the rear. I have the Competition Enginerring bolt in subframe connectors.

Looks like the new intake is for Vortec heads, and the old one wasn't. Are you going to adapt the Vortec manifold to the heads?

Can't wait to see how this works out for you. Which ECM and software are you going to run?

My heads actually have holes for both standard and vortec intakes. I will be running a micro squirt controller on it.

Still need a 4150 throttle body? I have one I never ran, somewhere. See attached... sat on my motor before I added the blower. Then of course, it didn't flow enough for the blower, so I had to go Dominator.

Uses all GM style IAC and TPS.

Heck, I hava RamJet 350 intake, throttle body and rails kicking around somewhere, too.

Nice build, I am contemplating a 69 with some cast off parts.

Got some parts, more on order. I should have everything sans the microsquirt controller soon. This weekend I'll have the fuel system done then on to some wiring.

Good luck with it. Wiring to me is one of those things you just go into knowing it's going to take a long time to do correctly. I just sit down and just start working slow and steady.
