So i picked up a '73 Nova hatchback, i've wanted a Nova since i was a teen, my dad always thought a hatch would be cool because of the rarity, i found one for a great price with an almost perfect and strait body for 41 years old and now comes the folly. After doing some research the B230FT in my 740 is getting swapped in and will make almost as much power as the inline six that came originally with it. Good news is that at 18psi and a turbo that has too much compressor it made 205 and 235 at the wheels, so that going to power this rig and i'm sure make more than a couple old timers commit suicide. Unlike the S10 i see out there and after doing a V8 swap on mine i'm thinking this engine bay should be way more suitable for the rear mount distributor and acompanying electronics and plumbing. Hoping to start work in two weeks, need to get the S10 strait first then the engine swap beings.
Question, which transmission to use? AW70 with the accumulator mod or 700R4? I have the adaptor kit sitting on the shelf.
