HOPE YOU PACKED A LUNCH
This is not the same car it used to be. Almost everything has been replaced. So get ready to read.


What the car was originally
Originally the car was a booger green colored two door sedan. The engine was a 194 cu inline six, with about 120 hp. Note: Even this is more than an average Honda has today. This car was made with no options what-so-ever. No power steering, No power brakes, No power windows, AM/FM Radio, Bench seat, and the worst of all? A Three speed Powerglide automatic tranny. Now with a car this weak, you have to have a low rear-end gear ratio to get it to move. Luckily, mine had a 4:11 gear ratio.

Oh, did I mention that every body panel including the floors had to be replaced? Well I just did. Quarters and fenders have been shaved and a Cowl induction hood has been added to give me a stiffy.
  Mods to the suspension
The 6 banger springs couldnt handle the big V8. So I put some V8 springs in, and while I was doing that I figued ID get some monroe shocks, new ball joints and some leaf springs for the rear end. Now the car handled the pot holes well but I still had considerable body roll. That is untill I got a heavy duty anti-sway bar so she can hug the turns.

Mods to the driveline
Well I blew the six banger by accident, (OR AT LEAST THATS WHAT I TOLD MY DAD) so it had to be replaced. But not with another 6, I dropped a 350 ci V8 in her. A tight fit to say the least. Every Nova guy knows that the stock V8 oil pan wont due so that was replaced with the correct Nova V8 pan. Then Engine has 10:1 compression. I put an alluminum intake from Wiend to cut down on weight and add some extra flow and height to the carb. The carb (for right now) is the stock Quadrajet 4 barrel. The tranny is a 350 turbo with a B&M shift kit. She shifts so nice and strong, and she chirps going through the gears, makes ya wanna splooge in your pants. It's got the stock drive shaft and the rear-end (though not a posi) was too nice a gear to change.

Wheels and Tires
The wheels are chrome 14in By SS. These are soon to be replaced by 15in Cragars. The tires are White Letter Douglas Performance GT's
