This is the cousin with Nova and I want nothing to do with "The Pewter Z" (to much bad Karma for me). I've got the Futral short block out of that thing and it is going in a 94 Mustang. I am hoping for 11.50's on motor 
. Hopefully that boat anchor "Pewter" car can keep up.

You better watch out though, if Santa is nice I will loose the RV cam this winter and step up to some 93 octane gas next year just to blow your doors off

Hey are those ET Streets you have on there? If so how many miles are you getting out of those things?

I'm the king of over done street project LOL.
This car started off with 26x10's and I wanted street car and I ended up driving out the garage with a tube frame back half, 4 link coil over car with tires big enough to float the car in water.
) I have another car on the way that I will use to bracket race, so when it is done the nova will get a make over and hopefully be a low nine second street ride. I am thinking blow-thru turbo or SC. I like the car to run slow when I race in the Box class (Super Pro). I feel it gives me an advantage over the 7 second dragsters .

.I also like the idea of chevy motors in mustangs, the mustang is a great drag chassis and gotta love chevy power
Trust me it is a lot of fun doing it, nothing like hot sparks flying in your face
