I think they called it &quot;War Emergency Speed&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]


Reminds me of Spaceballs, &quot;Ludicrous Speed&quot;

Nitromethane is a fuel that needs to be injected and doesn't mix with carburetors and gasoline. As far as Nitrous Oxide, the typical plate type systems weren't commercially available until the late Seventies.

I know there were several styles of cragars during the era.

Anyone know the right period correct cragars for this car?
Appreciate the help

a previous owner bought a set thinking they were correct for car. both the original owner and salesman confirmed the car had cragars at delivery.

Somebody pinch me.
i got a little gift from the saleman at Harry May Chevrolet that sold the DH Nova to first owner and brokered deal with 2nd owner.

He converted about 20min of 8mm vintage footage from Milan Dragway onto a DVD.
I cut it down and saved a piece onto youtube.

I was blown away when he told me that there was a clip of the DH 427 Nova ripping down the strip!!!

I dont know if this link will work or if someone can make it more accessible.

See you all at MCACN

It works !!

Why not upload more of the Milan footage if you have time. I'd sure be interested. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]
