I have a 1970 Chevrolet Nova project for sale.  I have the rebuild paperwork for the title, but haven't submitted it yet and am still in contact with the previous owner if more paperwork is needed to be signed to finish the Rebuilt Title process.  With that out of the way, I have a good condition 1970 Nova for sale.  Was originally a 307 with an Auto Column shift transmission.  Someone has installed a manual trans pedal assembly and cut a hole in the floor pan for a manual transmission.  I have a Th400 transmission with a TCI 2200 stall converter for it (used), and an almost complete 454 engine.  No transmission crossmember or proper driveshaft for that transmission.  I have a driveshaft that I will let go with it but am not sure it will work with trans and rear end.  I am not sure about what rear end it has, as I have not been able to find any identification on it.  It has drums all around on it.  

It has two factory rally's in the back and two newer rally's in the front.  I have a set of 15x7 wheels and tires that go with the car as well.  As well as a B&M floor shifter with a TH350 cable, no TH400 cable to go with.  No original seats for the car.  I have to high back bucket seats that go with it.  I believe they came out of a 1973 Grand Prix or similar GM car.

The 454 engine has been disassembled and was just about to get rebuilt, but have too many projects going right now.  I have the block (standard bore), crankshaft (standard rods and mains), stock pistons and rods, a set of good heads, factory 4 barrel manifold, factory rear dump exhaust manifolds, and a factory cam in the block.  The bores and bearing journals are in great shape and would be ready to put back together if someone bought a rebuild kit for it.  

The front and rear subframes are in good shape and not rusted out.  It will need a left rear quarter or fix the panel that is there.  I have two good doors that go with the car.  They just need to be changed out.  There is body rust on the car, but it is a very solid builder and should be treated as such.  

Previous owner attempted sanding on the car years ago and created nothing but surface rust where he didn't prime back up.  All the windows are there and in good shape.  One of the other doors has good glass in it as well.  Will need drivers side floor pan and passenger side front floor pan.  Trunk is solid.  Dash is in good shape, pad is cracked.  Engine wiring harness is still intact and so is all other wiring.

454 Engine Block - 14015445.  2 Bolt Main
454 Heads -  6272292 Oval Port Heads

I will post all the pics I am allowed and will get the cowl tag posted on here as well.  If you have any questions or would like to come look at the car, send me your number to seanmmacgregor@aol.com and I will contact you.  I can also text or email any desired photos to you.  I want everyone to be completely informed on what I am selling so there are no surprises when you show up. 

Thank you and good luck.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.

North American Car, Truck and SUV of the Year finalists revealed

Thu, Nov 17 2022

The finalists for the 2023 North American Car, Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year Awards were announced Thursday at the L.A. Auto Show. — The Acura Integra, Genesis Electrified G80 and Nissan Z made the cut in the car category. — The Ford F-150 Lightning, Chevy Silverado ZR2 and Lordstown Endurance advanced in trucks. — And the Cadillac Lyriq, Genesis GV60 and Kia EV6 advanced among utilities.  The winners will be announced Jan. 11 in Detroit.  The finalists underscored the industryÂ’s shift to electric vehicles, as all three utilities and two of the three trucks are EVs. The finalists were culled from a list of 26 semifinalists made up of three trucks, 10 cars and 16 utility vehicles that are new this year.  Notables that missed the cut include the Mercedes EQE, Subaru WRX and Toyota GR Corolla in cars; while the Honda CR-V, Kia Sportage and Rivian R1S were among the utes that did not advance. The three trucks are the only ones eligible this year and have advanced through the voting.  50 jurors who work for media outlets across North America vote three times over the course of the year to whittle down the field, which was originally 47 vehicles. Jurors also test the semifinalists at an October group event in Ann Arbor, Mich. The Honda Civic (car), Ford Maverick (truck) and Ford Bronco (utility vehicle) were the 2022 winners.
