Default Re: L79 engine differences: 66-67 Nova

Love the L79's and also the LT-1's but both motors in the same car no problem with the LT-1's taking charge. The LT-1 to me is the best "street" motor out there. Its a shame that neither motor can compete in a NHRA Stock Eliminator class. Also remember do not ever under estimate a Q-Jet. When set up correctly they go fast and make power.

Without getting hung up in intake manifold differances and dual snorkel verses open element air cleaners,having experienced cars with these engines back in the day I can tell you they were absolute screamers.
