THIS IS THE ENGINE WITH THE HEADERS. I'M WORKING TOWARD INSTALLING IT IN THE NOVA, BUT THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS LIMITED SPACE WISE. AS YOU CAN SEE THEY'ER FULL-LENGTH HEADERS. I'LL NEED TO REMOVE THE LEFT HEADER AND LAY IT IN THE ENGINE BAY HOPING TO NOT CRUSH IT. THIS SHOULD EASE INSTALLATION A BIT.
SOME DISSAPOINTING NEWS TODAY. THE TURBO 400 I USED TO REPLACE THE TURBO 350 DOESN'T FIT WITH MY CROSSMEMBER. I SOLD IT. I THINK I NEED A BIG BLOCK CROSSMEMBER. ANYBODY KNOW THIS CONVERSION? EMAIL ME AT EARTHBOY57@HOTMAIL.COM WITH YOUR COMMENTS. THANKS!
THE TURBO 350 THAT CAME OUT OF THE CAR WILL BE REBUILT FOR THIS INSTALLATION. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME I HAD TO FIX A TRANSMISSION FOR THIS CAR. THIS TIME IT MAY BE THE CHARMER. LIKE THE TURBO 400, IT WILL BE ALL HEAVY-DUTY EQUIPED.
THIS IS A GOOD PHOTO OF THE REBUILT TURBO 350. I DECIDED ON A HUGHES PERFORMANCE TORQUE CONVERTER. I NOW THINK THIS WILL ALL FIT IN THE NOVA VERY WELL.
