the trigger has been pulled,LTX '74 nova
well, my father in-law likes the way his 94 Z28 runs and drives so much, that we are forgoing the 4.8 lsx swap and he wants a LTX/4l60 combo dropped into the nova.
Little background: car is a original for the most part '74 with 68,000 miles, bench seat, vinyl top, yellow nova. Basic options were a 350, TH350 trans and a am radio. Thats it lol. Car is in a current state of disarray with the entire front clip off down to the frame rails and suspension as he is saving money to send it to a local shop for body mount repairs and a new full floor. Front suspension will consist of tubular upper and lower control arms, coil over conversion, quick ratio box, disc brakes, nice year one wheels and a good sway bar. Rear suspension is already mostly done with entirely new 5 leafs, poly/delrin bushings, and some caltracs. Rear will also get disc brakes. His focus is a nice driver with some pep. The original motor was shot for whatever reason (flattened cam lobes, and two big grooves in the main bearings), and the trans leaked from the front and rear seals. Interior will be updated a little, but was in such good shape its being mostly left alone, except for a covans classic dash. Pics will follow soon.
