LOL...probably not. The problem with that series of Novas (69-74?) is that under the tranny pan, there is a big cross member/plate thing that blocks the pan bolts so it is a big pain to tighten the pan bolts or replace the pan gasket. A couple of garages told me it would cost like $300 to change the gasket for me because of all the labor, and that was in the 80's. So I just kept a couple of quarts of tranny fluid in the car just in case...lol
Parents bought a SS 396 Nova brand new in 1970. It's my profile pic. My mom still owns it and drives it occasionally. 375 horse, 4 speed, 12 bolt rear, positraction. All the good stuff.
Great car like the way theyve left the interior stock makes a nice change & with that straight body nice engine swap sweet ride cruise or distance that car will do it
I seen a few, but I hate it when tub these and put the big block. The LS series are just enough for these cars. I can remember my father (real not adopted) buying a 1970 Nova right off of the showroom floor and it had a 307 V8, then 2 years later my grand ma bought new a 73 olds Omega and that too had the 307 V8 but little less power then the 70, but it was enough to get you in trouble. If you never seen an Omega, it is basically an upscale Nova for 73, in 73 you could also get a Buick Apollo or Pontiac Ventura which came as a GTO, great chassis most anything that fits on a Camaro will fit of one of these X Body models
