1973 Cheverolet Nova Ss Street Or Strip on 2040-cars
Randolph, Kansas, United States
|
This nova was purchased 1996 and driven as a street car for a couple years then was taken off the street to become a race car. It was raced from late 97-2004 and then another car was purchased and this one put in storage until 2012 when I decided to rebuild the car back to a race car, well I lost interest once it was pretty much done. It has a 327 CI SBC that is bored .030 with TRW 11.1 pistons with new rings, NEW scat I beam rods, GM steel crank, Crane roller cam with NEW Crane roller lifters, Dart aluminum heads, NEW Roller rockers, Team G intake with Rons flying toilet injection, belt drive fuel pump. The motor is fresh with only break in time on it in fact it stills needs some tuning on the injection. Also MSD 6T ignition box with MSD billet dist., MSD blaster coil, and MSD wires. I installed new headers, new electric water pump drive, pan e-vac system, and a NEW super starter. Then I rebuilt the powerglide with all new seals, clutches, and band I also installed a deep aluminum pan, TH350 hardened input, and a Coan High gear Low gear valve body with transbrake, then installed a NEW ACC 3500+ stall convertor and to shift it all I put a new Hurst quarter stick in. Car also has the factory GM 10 bolt 8.5 with 4.56 gears and a mini spool. New Goodyear slick, aluminum wheels. Jegs switch panel installed were the radio was, new oil pressure and temp gauges. Has a older 8 point roll cage with sub frame connectors. Poly racing seat, with older 5 way seat belts. 8 Gallon racing fuel cell and new fuel lines though out the whole car, mount for 2 batteries, has on in it now, master kill switch. All new Compition Engineering adjustable shocks on all four corners. This car ran 11.80s before I parked it and it will run better now with some new updates I did. Now this car has a clear title and fully street legal but will probably need some work with the lights I am not sure they all work. The only wiring I changed around was moving the ignition switch to a push button. I completely went through the body work in 1998 with new rear quarters, new harwood fiber glass 4inch cowl hood and fresh purple paint, the paint is in ok shape now days has some scrathes and chips from years of racing. The floor pans are not too bad in the front they do have some small rust holes, but the trunk is rusted pretty bad so I put a sheet of metal in and raised the floor up and made it flat. All in all this car can be a nice street car or a great race car. The interior has cheap carpet on the floor and stock door panels, the door panels and dash some wear and cracks. All that I had left to do was fresh paint, work on the interior and have it alingned. The car was an original SS. Feel free to ask any questions. I am willing to deliver the car up to 300 miles for free if it reaches the reserve.

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
