Hello everyone. I am working on a 1970 ss nova bbc car. At the present time the car is getting sandblasted or as we like to call it the truth room. I am going to be running dse suspension front and rear qlink with coilovers all the around with dse dtubs in back. The brakes are wilwood 13" 6 piston calipers front and either 12" or 13" wilwood in rear (not purchased yet). The motor is a 468 bbc with 11 1/2 to 1 comp. with a comp solid lift 294 cam. Still have the stock hi-prof. heads. with edle. rpm performer intake with a 850 double pumper. I am going to install a tremec 600 5 spd gong to a strange 9 inch ford rear axle. i have torque thrust II for the car as of right now. 17x8 up front with 245/45 nitto 555 and 18x10 with 295x45 nitto 555 out back. I would like to have a set of the fiske profile 5s to put on the car that might have to be a latter up grade. I will post some pictures later and keep a project update going also. Is there any info on how to get sponsors for projects? :fingersx:

Welcome to the site. You're just up the road from me. I live in Kingsport.

I also have a thing for Novas. I have a 68' BB w/ a 6spd. Check out the link in my sig.

Do a search on here about sponsors. Sometimes there is alot of travel involved to display their products. That equals time and money. Sometimes its just not worth it.

I put some pictures of the before disassembly and after in the PT garage. The car is in the blast room or the truth room as we call it. I'll try to keep updated pictures as the project moves foward.

Hello again Allen.

I have been so busy with customer cars I haven't had time to look up. I started on a 66 Chevy II for myself but it got stalled when the paying cars kept rolling in.

Keep us posted on your progress.
