sorry about all the posts but I just couldn't figure it out any other way. and one pic of the car it will be going in.

stock 2005 lq4 rebuilt with ring gaps opened up.
gm oilpan kit, stock rotating assy.
stock 317 heads with valve job and pac 8017 double springs.
comp 206/212 cam 528/540 114 cam.
7.4 comp pushrods,1.75rollers, ls9 head gaskets,gm performance bolt kit.

2.5 hotside tc-78 turbo.

im looking for great drivability and 10 flat when tuned in . not sure about intercooler yet there is not much room and I don't want to cut up the car. might be e85 down the road.

I like it! Which oil pan are you using? Curious if you tried it out in the car to check for clearance.

not yet I can get you the part number if you want. it is low but not as low as the stock truck pan. I got the gm number from ebay and it is said to fit 1958 to 1979 gm Camaro/nova/chevelle s. then ordered it from my local dealership.

for $125.00 it was a nice setup came with all bolts,gaskets,windage tray,oil cooler bypass,and a dipstick. and the pan of course.

I will be able to let you know how it fits soon.

Have you mocked all the hot side up in the Nova yet?
Your engine bay is the same as my Camaro , and I think you may need to tweek the manifolds a bit to get them to fit. I don't have the best pics of mine, but I will share them if you want.
As for oil pan, don't bother with ANY factory pan, just get the Autokraft pan, and be done.
NICE Nova btw!!

no have not mocked up the manifolds yet. I did do a ton of measuring and it looks llike a fit but im not sure how much I will have between the left manifold and the gear box. the manifolds are express van and I cut them back as far as I could and aimed them in a little.they should fit between the control arms but its close.

The manifold you have on drivers side will fit but you may need to grind it for steering box clearence - and that's with a manual box. Also the v band may interfere with the upper control arm mounts.
The pass side manifold will not clear the frame. I cut mine back a few inches and welded a strait section of 2.5" pipe strait forward .

well after a little measuring I found the manifold was to close to leave so I cut it up and rebuilt the pass manifold. im sure it will fit but im not going to weld anything more before its in the car.the last elbow will have to be moved in the car to keep it close to the control arm but I don't want to do it twice. does this look better

thanks 3pedals.
