Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
Allen, thanks for clearing that up. I guess I was wrong/mislead from years ago about the motor being broke. For that, I'm sorry. I was just passing on info that I recall from knowing this car for years as well.

Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
So does the guy who claims to have the original motor have the wrong motor in his car?

Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
------BigG,,,Give it up. If you reign this in right now and do the right thing you can still salvage this. Get your original engine back. Help get the 350hp motor back in the correct hole and you can still hold your head up. As a matter of fact, Id add the cost of all this to the price as this story line will probably support the higher price. Hey,,, youre left with a good 396/375 engine for another project too. In the end it doesnt matter where you got the engine in the car today because it simply isnt the original, IMHO!!!........Bill S

[/ QUOTE ] The right guy claims to have the wrong motor in his car, that motor, he claims is for the right car, which the wrong guy has. It's pretty simple to follow after reading it six times and assuming everyone is telling the truth. Hopefully the interested parties can work it out and get everything where it belongs and grind down the fake pad. |

One of my Grandfather's favorites was: "It looked so nice out this morning, that I decided to leave it out all day"
