What Was The Best Chevy Street Performer You Ever Owned
Still own this one. 39 years now. Bought it when I was 19. Couldn't afford it if I had to buy it in todays market. Original 315hp Fuelie, 4spd, HD brake, radio delete car. Never got the original engine with the car. Has a 383 stroker, making around 475 hp. A real blast to drive. restored the car myself 30yrs ago. I have since, found a correct numbered 283 short block and correct heads, and the correct Fuelie Doghouse and distributor. The car will be due for a repaint soon, and I will put all the Fuelie stuff in then. Have still always had Mopars. Although I did sell a 69 A12 Bee in 1977 for 3k to buy this Corvette. Don't Hate on me.
I learned something today :glasses7: never knew the 69 Nova was offered with a 4 banger :glasses7:I had a 69 Nova that was an original 4 cylinder car. Engine was long gone when I got it, so I found a 396 and blueprinted a stone stock 350 HP 396 for it. Turbo 350, 3.23 gears.
It was quite snappy for an everyday driver.
