Merry Christmas to me!

Check out what my wife bought me for christmas;

[Charley]

SUPA BAD DJ!!!!! that is a suweet Nova... street legal??

[Havasu Hangin']

Man...I always wanted one of those. Very nice.
What motor?

[don johnson]

It is street legal, did the DMV stuff with no problems suprisingly!
It has a Jenkins built 434 CI small block. 786 HP on the motor. Big cam and heads and 14:1. Even has a Hogan sheet metal intake. The car ran the qtr in 9.23 @ 148 MPH on the motor thru the mufflers. Will be hooking up the Nitrous and adding wheelie bars for the super chevy meet. The car should run low 8's on the bottle. Not bad for a small block....

[WetWillie]

I love Novas. Very sweet congrats!!

[Kilrtoy]

That is awesome.... :D :D :D :D

very nice car.if only i was a good boy.raced super chevy a few times,what class do you plan to run?boys on the big tires are pretty fast but low 8's might make the feild.

Cannot say until I get the car dialed in... The car theoritically should run in the 7's with the 400 HP fogger but cannot say until I get some time in the car on the juice! No doubt it will run low 8's. The car is really set up nice. I can run it all day in 90 degree heat without the motor getting over 180 degrees so making the field in the street class will not be a problem.

[spectredave]

sweet looking ride

[boatnam2]

if it goes straight and you get to bang it with the 400 should put up a pretty good number.what does it have a lenco?

[don johnson]

Turbo 400 with a trans brake.
Right now it goes very straight with no tire shake. However, another 400 horses will change things a lot.... I will have to add wheelie bars. It already carries the wheels 3 feet on the motor. Typical launch for a big HP, big tire small block Nova. If I can leave on the juice it should put up a pretty impressive number for a small block...

[boatnam2]

what ever it runs it is a beautiful car and your a lucky man.i would probaly baby it so much i wouldnt even put it on the button nahhhhhhhh i would leave on the wood and on the button.

[25Elmn8r]

Thanks. I have a great wife whom shares in my interests, fast boats and cars! That really makes it all worth while!

[don johnson]

As you live in Yorba Linda as well I am sure you will see it on the street. Lets get a beer at Canyon Inn sometime and I will bring it!

[plaster dave]

Was this motor set up to run nos.????

[andy01]

Right on, I think all of us at one point or another have wanted a Nova like that. Hell I think all of us would like a Nova like that RIGHT NOW too! Congrats man, that is one sweet as ride. That's a hell of a Christmas gift from the wife!

[don johnson]

Was this motor set up to run nos.????
Yup. Pistons with the ring lands moved. Billet crank, Carillo rods, MSD crank trigger deal with the electronics that will pull timing, etc.

[plaster dave]

If you need someone to tune it my buddy does this for alot of people that are in the PSCA

[Jrocket]

Nice car.I ve got a 66 and two 67's.Let me know when your taking it to the track,I'd like to drop by and watch ya work it out.I dont see ya going in the 7's with that combo,but it will run good with what you have.66 is by far the best nova body made.
Take a look at some of the PSCA classes and see about running a few of the races.They have a descent program going.

[boatnam2]

i think irwindale is running thursday nights 1/8 mile, but could get to see how it likes to leave on the gas.havent been into it for a couple of years like to hit the lacr .good test and tune sessions on friday nights also if there wasnt to many rice burners.little bit of a drive but was about the same to carlsbad and was alot longer than there little 4 hour session.if your ever heading out to the track let me know i will come check it out.brother has a 10.5 car but the way he is going it will never be done.

[BADBLOWN572]

Damn!!! What more is there to say??? Sweet ride DJ. Got rid of my race car to get the boat and every day I wish I had it back. :( Oh well, got rid of one toy to afford another. Some day...

[djunkie]

Sweet grocery getter. 66 Novas are definatley nice. :)

[Gmoney]

Check out what my wife bought me for christmas;
I have 67 nova. It has a 427 sb with nos. I have gone 8.50 at 164mph.It is also black with a tube chassis. I live pretty close to you might of seen it at super chevy or in popular hot rodding magazine or in the metallica video for the song fuel.I also ran in psca 10.5 outlaw tire class. I'll try to post some pictures. By the way tell your wife she has good taste the car is bad ass!

[Gmoney]

this is a picture of my 67.

[boatnam2]

g-money did you run that car at super chevy 5 or 6 years ago?i remember that car.one word badass.my brother runs around with the hot rod performance guys did they ever get there camaro to run good in the 10.5 class?

[don johnson]

this is a picture of my 67.
Yo G,
Awesome car. I look forward to seeing the car run. Do you take it to any street scene events/ cruises?

[BADBLOWN572]

this is a picture of my 67.
G is your ride the one that as the plate of 1 BAD II? :)

[Gmoney]

Yup! my plate is 1 bad 11. (BadBlown572)
Which Camaro are u talking about? the green blown one?(Boatnam2)
The car has been put on the backburner for awhile do to my Boat. Last time we had it out, we tried an extra stage of nitrous and it didnt go very welllllll!Just recently I started to put her back together. the motor in the car right now made on 91 octane, 11 to 1, 730hp at over 560lb torque. At the wheels the car makes 1100hp on nitrous. I used to drive the car in high school just the way it sits in that picture.She is a true street car.

[boatnam2]

i mean a 69 i found a pic on the psca web site.

[The sticks]

That was Randys camaro and last i talked to him he sold it.

[BADBLOWN572]

G I remember seeing your ride out at the Street Legals all the time at Pomona and every time I saw it I was in awe. I do have to say that your car is one of the best looking cars around. The attention to detail was immaculate. I saw your car and decided to strip mine (66 SS Chevelle Convertible) to try to get it as close as yours, didn't come close, but was still happy with what I had. Then I saw it in the Fuel video and knew that was the car from Pomona. Sold the Chevelle to pay for the boat, but damn do I miss that car. Some day I will have another...Someday :) :D

[Gmoney]

Here is picture of my motor in my boat. Its 547 built by ClaySmith. same as my Nova motor.

It's about time you started getting that thing back together buddy! Man I miss that thing being on the road as well. I can testify for him driving it to high school that way since he parked it right next to me in the parking lot.

That car looks familar, you still have it? When was the last time that thing saw daylight? Truely a bitchin car that you need to get back out doors. ALthough ridiing you boat ain't half bad either. :p

Im not sure whos motor it was but i know it was Randys car.I think hes taking a year off then they are going to build something else,he wasnt sure when i talked to him a month or so ago.
