  • We install new QA1 suspension goodies and our Wilwood Big Brake kit on our 1969 Chevy Nova sleeper car project (Narcolepsy Nova). In addition to completing the front suspension and brakes we upgrade/replace our old tired steering components with new CPP parts.

    I have the exact same front suspension on my 72. I also put the wilwood brakes on the rear too.
    Great video.

    On one of those drum brake cars you have try using the Muscle Car Brakes ceramic brake shoes. That upgrade is supposed to make it stop as good or better than disc brakes. It would probably get pricey to do that Wilwood conversion to all of the Novas?😎👍

      The prices of these cars have definitely skyrocketed in the past few years. Luckily I was fortunate enough to pick mine up for pretty cheap (considering today’s nova prices)

    Awesome video! Thanks very much, I would’ve totally forgotten to get the stainless line kit
    Definitely ordering up the same brake kit, looks phenomenal and a huge upgrade over the drum brakes. Loved that you weighed the difference between either set up as well that’s the stuff that keeps me up at night 🤣
    When your daughter came in with ice cream was super cute too 😂 great helpers!

    Don’t know if I’ll do the whole package like you did but definitely need to do a power front disc conversion on my 70 this summer !

    Will you Be able to install ridetech’s truturn kit with the QA1 spindles ? And what type of steering box will you be using ? Thanks

    Your links don't work but they did in last video. I believe you have about $5000 in just the front end parts. Will be interesting to see how much you'll have in the whole car when done.
