Mopar vs Chevy teenager style.
I got a feeling Ron jr will have a good fun grudge race some time soon. It will be all in good fun as its one of my best friends sons. My good buddy who owns the black 65 Coronet helped his 19 year old son by this 69 Nova. There has been some smack talk between my buddies two sons and my two boys about which car is faster between the Dart and this Nova. He ran the Nova once last year and ran 12.44 @ 116 on street tires so it should go easy 11's on stickies. And Ron Jr just ran 11.60's @ 116. But we are making a few changes hoping to drop below 11.50. The Nova is pretty healthy as its a .060 over 454 with a .670 lift solid cam and 10.5 comp. Its alot of cam and not very street freindly. They just took the 4.56's out and put 4.10's in it and it has a 3500 convertor. Its got iron ported Chevy heads and roller rockers with a Holley single plane intake and an 850 DP. It is a very nice looking and healthy sounding car. Hell if you go by the sound its got it all over the Dart but noise dont win races. Its cool as they are good friends and I know they want to line up at the track soon. They are both taking their cars to a car show this Sat at their old highschool. I just hope they can wait until they get to the track. I am sure they will as it should be a good clean race. I will say Ron Jr has more track time and cuts better lites in his favor. Ron
The Competition: One Chevy Nova with .060 over 454
The favorite: 72 Dart with .030 over 400.
