The ac will mount in the conventional passenger down low location, I notched my sub frame for it already. I am going to be swapping the cog drive on to it so some stuff is going to have to move around, I am going to fabricate a new core support and swap inter coolers.

I've got a 70 Nova that I painted a wild color, and your car impresses the hell out of me. I love the wheel color matching the car itself. I bet that motor puts out crazy power. Have you dyno'd that motor?

We dynoed it twice. The last time we dynoed it it made 775hp and 750tq on 18psi, It should put out around 21 or 22 but I am having belt slip issues. That was on a Dyno Dynamics load bearing chassis dyno. The 8 rib serpentine setup will not support my power. I am going to have to go to a cog drive to see full boost. I tryed making a pull while we were on the power tour but the wore out belt i had on the car would not make over 10 to 12 psi.

Awesome Nova. I love the wheels, I'm used to seeing everything black centered with colored lips or lip stripes. Looks fantastic! :thumbsup:
