New Nova Project?
I have a chance to buy a '63 Nova from a friend who got it when she turned 16. I don't know much about the early Nova's, it's a 6 cylinder w/Power Glide,
Knowing that they didn't come with a V8 in '63 would I have to do anything to drop a 350 into it?
I know that a Turbo 350 tranny will fit because my Camaro had a Power Glide and I changed it.
Also what about the front suspension, what would I have to do to handle the extra weight?
I'm trying to decide how much extra I would have to put into the project.
I have the motor and tranny and the car will cost me $5000, is it worth that?
Thanks, Ken
