Magazine articles

I was just going thru the Chevy High Performance online magazine and ran across these old features on my car for anyone that might be interested.

This other one is a story I originally wrote for Hot Rod, but is also found on the CHP site.

That CHP article is were I first saw your Nova

It was on the cover and featured in the April 99 Hot Rod Magazine, and was used for a some other articles over the next few years.

That's really cool Mike. I can't imagine having a car in a national publication. You're a pretty good writer.

Bowtie..Do you know a guy named Tony Nas.. that wrote some articles for CHP? I just bought a 427 from him that was a CHP build up engine.

Nice!

Cool! I remember both of those. (the brake article may be in my files)

You should see Mike's car at the track. It's one those cars that has everyone hanging the fence when he makes a pass. Red oxide primer, wheels up, and hauling a**.

I think I may still have the CHP mag. Now I am gonna have to look for it.

so what are the specs on the cam for that 406 sb??

I think at that time it was 283@.050 duration /.630-.672 lift
My current cam is 280/288@.050 duration /.725-.685 lift

Bowtie..Do you know a guy named Tony Nas..

Tony Nausieda(I think that's the spelling) yeah, he was still there when we did that story. Most of the guys I know from the magazines have all moved on to other gigs--Matt King is at Harley Davidson, Marko Radielovic moved back to Croatia, Ro Mcgonegal is doing freelance stuff, Steve Magnante is doing TV and freelance, Scott Crouse works in his Dad's tire store(and freelances) Terry Mcgean just went to Hemmings...............all my parts connections are disappearing!!

pretty cool stuff Mike ;)

thanks fer sharin' :D
