Re: L89 Nova???????
If I'm not mistaken, the aluminum heads were casted at the Winters Foundry in Canton, Ohio where the intakes were casted correct?? If so, I know an older fella who still resides in Canton and near the old foundry. He was telling me that back in the day of making these things many of them would "disappear" or "go over the fence" if you know what I mean.. He said lots of street racing guys back then had the aluminum components on their engines who lived around the Canton area and he said that he bets that lots are still sitting around in garages in this area..
Case in point, I think lots of these things were floating around and were put on big blocks back in the day and now people are surmising/guessing or just fabricating what they want to believe their car is, meaning a true L89 car... I do believe that there were some true L89 cars made... I also think that the dealerships may have converted the cars this way as well if the customer wanted...
Just my .02 Rich
