Ok so a lot of people tell me that a nova is expensive since chevy didn't make a lot. But they also tell me that the straight six on my 76 nova should stay there and not be replaced. Why is that? Whats so good about them?

economy, ease of maintenance, ease of finding parts (for the most part)
they don't reproduce a lot of 4th genner parts, not like they do for '62-'74 but the car isn't rare. you can find stuff with a little searching.
it's all up to you and your driving style. i hang with a lot of California guys and a lot of 'em have sixers in their rides. there's Nothing wrong with havin' a sixer. :no:
Well, that series of 6 cylinder is only probably second to the chrysler slant 6 for reliability and being bulletproof. As far as being a slug, it's got that covered too unfortunately. I worked on one that someone had put in a 4500 lbs 63 impala with a powerglide. That one was bad.
Lol you got me. Well you can shoot it without damaging it.
