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.

Next-gen Chevy Camaro ZL1 teases big changes under its camo

Mon, Aug 3 2015

With work complete on the lighter, stiffer 2016 Camaro, it's time for Chevrolet's engineers to really start having fun by developing the next, ZL1 version. Here it is for the first time. Unfortunately, the muscle car is still wearing quite a bit of camouflage, but the concealment isn't enough to hide some of the meaner model's more obvious performance tweaks. Starting from the front, this Camaro now wears a much more aggressive front fascia with bigger air inlets. Managing the airflow around the engine bay is clearly a big deal because another photo reveals a fairly large extractor in the hood, as well. Moving down the profile, the lower side sills and orientation of the camo suggest some blistered fenders in the back to cover wider rubber, and at the very rear a much larger wing further suggests the need to keep things planted to the road. Check out the comparison images in the gallery for a better look at the tweaks. What will power the next ZL1 is still entirely a mystery, although sticking with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 could be a possibility, especially if you take the big extractor in the hood as a hint. Whereas the current ZL1 makes 580 horsepower and 556 pound-feet of torque, the LT4 in the latest Cadillac CTS-V pumps out 640 hp and 630 lb-ft. Combined with the Camaro's other improvements, we're thinking that this new ZL1 will be quite a hot ticket, and based on these spy shots, we can't wait to find out.

Chevy Express, GMC Savanna reportedly ending production for 2025

Sat, Jul 2 2022

The oldest commercial vans on the market may only have a few years left, according to a report from Autoweek. The news outlet cited a "competitive analysis source" in saying that the Chevy Express and GMC Savanna commercial vans would be discontinued after the 2025 model year. They would then be replaced by a new electric van, likely Ultium-platform based, for the 2026 model year. We reached out to GM for comment, and this is the official statement sent to us: "We have said in the past that as part of GM’s larger EV acceleration plans that we will add two new vehicles to our commercial portfolio. The first is a full-sized battery electric cargo van and the second is a medium-duty truck that will put both Ultium and our Hydrotec hydrogen fuel cell technology to work. We have not disclosed timing, names or shared any other details, so any articles reporting more are purely speculative." The GM vans are mighty old, having been introduced for the 1996 model year. They've barely changed since then, having received just some facelifts and updated powertrains over the years. And with GM's electrification plans, we're not surprised that these vans will be on the way out. We do have some disagreement about the reported timeline for replacement, though. We suspect that the upcoming electric vans will overlap with the old vans for at least a year. The reason being that there are a lot of these vans on the road, and there are a lot of pieces of equipment that fit them. Box vans, buses and more have components that have been designed for the Express and Savanna. If you're a fleet that has invested in these components, you might not be ready to shift over to a whole new platform. So GM will probably want to give fleet buyers one last opportunity to replace any old vans before committing entirely to a new electric van platform. It will also be interesting to see what kind of market the GM electric vans enter. Ford already has its electric Transit on the way, and Stellantis will be launching the Ram ProMaster electric van next year. Those are both based on existing gas-powered vans. And GM itself has already delivered the first of its larger BrightDrop EV600 electric vans to FedEx. The coming GM vans will likely be new platforms, which could give them performance and range advantages, though the Ford and Stellantis vans will have the advantage of being compatible with equipment for the gas variants.

Watch Evo pick its 2015 Car of the Year in this epic video

Mon, Dec 7 2015

With just a few days left in 2015, it's the perfect time to check out Evo's annual Car of the Year test to determine the greatest performance vehicle of the last 12 months. The writers' picks for the 11 finalists spanned a breadth of engaging models and included: Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport, Lamborghini Aventador SV, Seat Leon Cupra Sub8, McLaren 675LT, Porsche 991 GT3 RS, Porsche Cayman GT4, Honda Civic Type R, Ferrari 488 GTB, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Lotus Evora 400, and Mercedes-AMG GT S. For the venue to test the mettle of these performance machines, Evo stuck close to home this year and visited the twisting roads at the beautiful north coast of Scotland. Racing brothers Marino and Dario Franchitti also came along for the ride to provide two more voices in the competitive challenge to determine a winner. Evo's video explains why each model deserves to be among such rarified company but doesn't gloss over their faults either. There can be only one winner, though. We don't want to spoil it, so check out the clip for magnificent views of these performance machines through the Scottish countryside.
