'69 Nova L78 Project
I would be very wary of this seller, considering some of the crap they have on Ebay. But, this seems like the exception - a halfway decent looking starter car, although I think it's priced a few grand too high.

Re: '69 Nova L78 Project
Thought about this one long and hard... My concern is the engine pad surface. Appears to have been decked or honed?

Re: '69 Nova L78 Project
It appears that it has small block engine mount brackets on the frame.

Re: '69 Nova L78 Project
The cooling fan is not the correct "W" unit fixed blade fan. But I guess you cannot argue with build sheet documents.

Re: '69 Nova L78 Project
That's my old car. Sold it about 1 1/2 yrs ago. It is a real deal, I pulled the docs out of the back seats 15 yrs ago.

Re: '69 Nova L78 Project
Is that the correct BBC crossmember? Doesn't appear to be off-set to the right. TAZ

Dan </div></div> I bought the block off e-bay. That's the way I got it. I think it is 30 over, it is balanced, all new parts. We broke the motor in on a stand, it ran very well.
