Default 65 Nova wagon 5.3/4L60E install
Finally done with it! I just need to tune the car and then it is ready for it's first road trip to DesMoines,Ia for the Good Guys show! I have a ton of pictures as I went along. Totally sold on LS power now! I will never own another carb! Special thanks to PSI conversions for a awesome wiring harness!, Schofeld headers, Tanks Inc pump and abunch of other companies and last but not least, my wife!

I love the wagon! The stance is perfect. What front and rear suspension setup did you use? Aftermarket front clip?
