Looks awesome man! If you have any questions ask. There's a lot of packaging issues with these cars and these engines. Lots of stuff in a small space. Looks like you started with a much better car than we dis Wheels look killer, we almost went colored centers on ours, wimped out though.

Thanks! It was a very nice car to start with.

I would love to see some detailed pics of your tunnel work. Thats my next step.

Cool! Two great looking Novas being built. Both of you guys are doing great work. Good job Mitch.



catmanzr, be sure to start a thread on your car too.

as far as the tunnel, i cut it the whole way back from the firewall to the rise in the the floor for the rear seats. you dont have to but for me it was easier to do, are you going with a 4L80? the biggest issue you have to get around with them is clearance for the fittings and where the bellhousing comes down to the mainbody on the trans at the top is considerably taller than the stock powerglide sized tunnel. those are your two main hurdles, i also raised and widened the driveshaft tunnel for a little more comfort room, i plan on running something a little bigger than the stock broomstick for a driveshaft.

I'm putting in a viper spec t56 manual. I like to shift!

Do you have any pics of the tunnel you can share? Trying to figure out how I'm going to tackle.

Thanks for you time......Dan

Nice work guys. I'm also doing a 67 coupe with an LS. TCI front clip & 3 link. But no LSA.. Just a 398ci LQ9 with twin 72's and a T56.
