Default '64 Nova with twin-turbo LS



I spend way too much time on Craigslist and this crazy Nova is why. The seller says the motor is built for up to 1100 horsepower, but he hasn't actually taken any runs with it. Regardless, this baby would be a huge hit at the local cruise in. Check out more pics and a breakdown of the build over on the HP.

I lose the tinted windows, but otherwise? I'd leave this baby as is...

$30,000 is a lot of money. But its yours so. It doesn't look like there is any intercooler for the turbos. Are they Ebay turbos just slapped on a junkyard 5.3.? Even though the pictures are not very informative. From what I can see, 9's is a very bold statement. Capable maybe. But then again, anything is.

Guess it doesn't need an intercooler if the owner hasn't taken any runs in it.

Default Dyno Tuned ?

Hi Johnny, I would ask if it was "dyno" tuned and who did this ?
I would observe the fuel pump choice or ask ?
I would ask for the fuel injector size ?
I would ask for the EMS model ?

The work done looks good from the pictures observed.
