If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. Some days are just that way, you know? It's get better Samy, much much better. Russ.

Samy, if it weren't for bad luck, ..............You know how this statement ends, don't you?? Russ.

Does that have the third member in it we built here? Did you ever get a chance to break it in? If you haven't, don't forget to do it. And like I always say, DON'T FORGET THE OIL. Wish I could be there to see the look on your face when you get to drive it!!!! Russ.

Just installed on my '66 Valiant weekend before last. It's a GREAT kit. It's almost mistake proof the way they made the kit. I dropped mine to the top hole, lowering the car one inch. Also, I had them ship me the front brackets with no holes machined, my springs use a 7/16 front bolt, not a 5/8...

YY1, I think the 283 and the 327 was available. A friend of mine had an early style Nova that had a 365 horse 327 in his, don't remember if it came that way or not. He was one of the spoiled "rich kids". Both collectors would go through that hole I'm pretty sure. I'm trying to visualize what...

Way back when, I had a '64(?) Nova with a 194 six and power glide. I remember that to put a V8 in one in that time period required a special pan and pick-up. My Nova exhaust went down and back in chassis on driver's side (left) if I remember right. I think that hole is for the exhaust on the 180...

Those look like 180 degree over the top headers. The year 1978 would be about right. The trans on the ground under the front of the Nova looks to be a Richmond 5 speed. They had a tendency of blowing 3rd because of no bearing support for the long span between the bearings. The shafts actually...

A special time out for Nella and a prayer. May God be with you. Russ.

Happy birthday neighbor. I'll meet you at the fence in the back yard by the gate to give you your present. Glad to see you finally hit 21. Russ.

A buddy of mine had a '32. Had a 273, tunnel, mopar 4 speed with an 8 3/4. Drove it down from Seattle many years back and we all met at Circus Circus in Reno for Hot August Nights. After that he drove on down with us to Berdoo and then went street racing in Hemet. I can't remember what ever...

I got mine today. Beautiful piece of worksmanship. Thanks Steve. Russ.

I use a 5 footer, and route it from the shifter to the passenger side, under the pan and back up on the drivers side to the trans. I wish that they made a 4 1/2 footer. I have a brand new 4 footer and 3 footer, can't use but I tried. I also use a https://www.summitracing.com/parts/dei-010418...

Those look good Steve. Just ordered one from e-bay. Thanks. Russ.

The shifter levers in those pictures fit a Munce with the thru bolt shift shafts for attaching the levers. The little hole on the reverse lever that is bolted to where the shifter is suppose to be bolted is for the factory Muncie back up lights linkage to the switch which would be bolted to the...

I'm still playing with my '66 Valiant 2 door post. I have been approached maybe a half a dozen times, because I drive it every day that it's runable. It's got a nice newly built 340, 3500 stall, 904, 8 3/4 with either 3.23's, 3.91's or 4.86's, depending on use. I've been working on this thing...
