This is
my BIG Baby.... For almost 10 years, I have been working on her, finally
I am close enough to let everyone get a look. I started out with a 350
small block/TH 350 combo, which, with street radials, and thru the exhaust,
went 13.20's. Finally, my good friends, Chris Chalkey, Eric Miller, and
Mick Kmetz traded labor to narrow her. Now, Specs are as follows: Engine:
489 ci., 8.75:1 Comp, Lunati .680/.695 roller cam, 850 double pumper, ATI
Dominator 1 Supercharger . Trans: Bob Phillips TH400w/B&M pro transbrake.
Rearend: Strange/F**d 9" w/35 spline Mosier axles, and Strange spool and
case. Present gear is a 3.89:1 for the Blower engine. Line weight is 3890
lbs, really heavy for a Nova, but that includes the all steel body, full
interior, Big Block, 9" Rearend, complete 4" Flowmaster exhaust.... etc.etc.
10/4/98 Its IN!!!! Time to go to the track...
