Nova Gets A New Gas Tank

Переглядів 2,6 тис.3 роки тому

This video covers installing a new LS Swap gas tank for the Nova. Tank is from Summit Racing, part #SNE-19-416. The pickup-tube fittings I just picked up from a local hardware store. The main reason for this new tank is to eliminate the fuel pump noise on startup and while driving. It was incredibly loud!!! It is now super quiet.

Check out what I found on the rear wheel wobble where I installed "The Right Stuff" rear disc conversion. Could be a bent axle? Could be a bent rim? Take a look at what I found out and it might surprise you.

1972 Nova Friday Drive With My Son

Переглядів 1,4 тис.3 роки тому

WARNING: Might be a long, boring video to you. I made this video primarily for my son and I to immortalize our time together when he came to visit in early May 2021. After a long week of upgrading the heads, intake manifold, swapping injectors, fixing exhaust pipes, replacing the bumper and, of course, installing Racedeck in the entire garage, we take our reward and go for a drive in the Nova f...

1972 Nova Dyno on LSXR and 799 Heads Upgrades

Переглядів 1,4 тис.3 роки тому

This tells the story of trying to reach my goal of 400 RWHP. We upgraded the intake manifold to a FAST LSXR 102 and went from 317 heads to 799s which were ported and polished. Several other upgrades/changes were moving the fuel pressure regulator to the fender, swapping out the truck water pump to the LS1 style to clear the throttle body and swapping out the electric fan to a more low-profile o...

1972 Nova Head & Intake Upgrade

Переглядів 4973 роки тому

We show you the process of installing the 799 heads and FAST LSXR intake manifold as well as the trouble we had with the front steam line (none on the rear for these type of heads). Mounting the coils on the firewall didn't work out because the bracket assembly turned out to be too high to fit under the hood, so we kept the original valve cover mounted coil assembly.

Nova Gets A New Garage Floor

Переглядів 2833 роки тому

After years of waiting, the Nova gets a new garage floor. This is made by SnapLock. The car mat I purchased is this one and I highly recommend it. It stops any oil leakage and antifreeze from seeping through and into the tiles. www.amazon.com/dp/B088CXVRQL?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details

72 Nova Still Fixing Dragging Brakes

Переглядів 6 тис.5 років тому

Fiddling with the brakes AGAIN on the Nova! So after they warm up, still the disc brakes drag just slightly. Here is where I work on the push-rod behind the master cylinder trying to figure out why this booster and master do not work together, even though purchased as a set.

1972 Nova Fixing The Brake Draging Issue

Переглядів 1,5 тис.5 років тому

In this video I'm working on solving the brake dragging issue. I've had this problem ever since installing the new master cylinder, power booster and new clutch and brake pedal assembly. I also converted the brakes to all disc brakes. I assumed that once i replaced everything it would start working normally. Watch this video to find out what the problem was and how I fixed it.
