Default LS6 into 72 Nova..

I swapped out my oil pan, and installed my trans dapt plates, and was all ready to go!!! then I figured out that the Nova has BBC frame mount humps, not SBC ones.. so I am stuck again... lol

I will post pics when I get back outside...

Next question is, who makes a "affordable" long tube header for this swap, as I see that steering box is REALLY in the way.. It might be easier to just convert over to a rack and pinion setup.. geez..

Thanks
