Tim Schuetz;s (NAPA68) not so stock 1967 Nova!

[Xplantdad]

Bruce,

As urged by Ken ( KWHIZZ) here are some photos of my 67 Nova in progress. The latest revision includes the addition of a 9" Ford, CPP front control arms along with a Church Boys rack and pinion conversion. This all was done to support my new engine. 422" SBC.

I have owned this car for about 5 years now. It has gone through some changes in my ownership from a 327 Powerglide to a 355 5 speed.

The 422 dynoed at 596hp @ 6300 and made 545 ft lb @ 4100.

-----Although I understand the benefits of rack and pinion steering, most of the time I dont like the set-ups as they hang down in plain view. Yours appears to tuck up in there very nicely . I wish more of them did! Very cool ride all the way around .......Bill S
