    I inherited an 70 Nova it sat for almost 30 years. Got it running, but it’s burring almost a quart of oil every 100 miles. It would be worth it to pull the 307 engine and do an overhaul or just swap it with an 350?

I am wondering if anyone has any pictures of an l31 with all of its stock accessories in a 3rd gen? I am worried about power steering...

    I started a thread last year when i purchased my Nova. I was working out of a 1 car garage that i would hit my elbow on every wall when i turned a rachet. I finally got a new house and 2 car garage that has turned into my Nova Cave with plenty of room! I am a complete novice when it comes to...

    I've got a '77 350/350TH, 3.08 posi, with factory buckets and floor shifter. I really would like to move to an overdrive tranny and happen to have a 200-4R sitting around already. (I also have a couple 700R4s here, but I like the 200-4R because it won't require driveshaft modification, among...

    I have a 75 with a 250 inline 6. I'm swapping out the 6 after I picked up a 75 with 350. Since I want to clean up the clip and steering linkage, would it be better to remove the clip, motor and tranny from each as a unit or pull motor and tranny, then pull and clean up the clips then swap? This...

    I need to get a set of headers, probably 2" primary's, for my BB swap into my 73. Do I need to get a set specific for the 3rd gen or are there other years that will fit from the 2nd gen? Any from the Camaro? The car has a 454, M20, power brakes, and power steering in it. I also have used the...

    My 73 is currently a 350 4-speed car but i got a hell of a deal on a 454 so i think its gonna go in my 73. What do i need to change? Will my stock radiator work? Will i have to change my steering box?(has power steering). Any header clearance issues? Is it a headache or easy swap?

    I have an all original 73 Nova Custom that currently has a tired 350 and 4 speed saginaw so its time to do something. My questions are this 1. Is it worth rebuilding the saginaw? The new motor will make around 400-425hp. 2. If its not worth it then what all do i need to make a swap to a...

    I need some help picking a motor for my '73. Right now, it has the factory 250 inline six, three on the tree, and 3.08 rear gears. Eventually, it will get 3.42's and a Keisler RS400 five speed, but before that happens, I want to decide on a motor. The main thing is that it has to be good on gas...

    I'm kicking off my T56 swap this week. I know that cutting is required to achieve the proper driveline angle, and I've seen pictures on here of people who have done it, but I can't find them. Does anybody know who did the swap and documented the clearancing? Also, on a side note, I'm going to...

    Just curious what hp and torque numbers would be possible out of a 5.3 cam and intake. Also if I could do the whole swap if I get the 5.3 for around $350 and use my current 700r4 how cheap could I do the swap? I'm in high school and don't have a huge budget to spend. Also how quick could someone...
