java black Oct 19th, 08, 07:37 AM i would do the nova, ultimate sleeper
Scott MH Oct 19th, 08, 10:49 AM yeah a 572 nova does sound like some fun :D
sneakey pete Oct 19th, 08, 02:16 PM I just picked a '68 Firdird (body is excellent shape and in primer totally gutted) as a project car. Now I can leave the Camaro as a driver and the Firebird will be a drag (mule) car. Planning on 496 just can't decide on a purchasing a crate (730hp) or building one from bare block. Plannning on mini tub and cage looking at turning 10 sec or even mid to high nines. What are you folks opinion on cages bolt together vs weld in and crate engine vs build? Any good specs on turning a 454 into a 750 to 800 hp engine with gobs of torque? Naturally aspirated. Also want to get about a 5" or 6" cowlhood. Any ideas (or opinions) on plex vs glass as I don't have a front window for the car.
