Re: Need a bigger engine for 67 Nova

Make sure you allow for the correct oil pan and pump "pickup", as the earlier Nova/Chevy II has a different steering mechanisim with special pan requirements. Moroso makes all the right stuff.

Don't go the "cheap route" for your engine. If you must buy a "crater", make sure it's one of the better ones. Anything under $2K isn't going to be worth much... You should also talk to your local engine builders. A good machinist can easily make you more power for your dollar than a crater. Craters just make things more simplistic...
