My brother is pumped. He had been sitting on the car for 4-5 years and to have it start was huge. |
Re: My brother's Nova
Damn photobucket. Ill post up some pics of the car if people want. Anyway. Got a bit done on it this weekend. Nothing to interesting: new u-joints, mounted the ECU, ran radiator lines, mounted battery in the trunk. I started the exhaust for it. 2.5'' stainless. Need a bit more tube and some mufflers. Everything should be ordered by the end of today.

Re: My brother's Nova
The exhaust is looking very nice. Yeah, the PB thing is a chit show.

Re: My brother's Nova
Your welding is way better than mine. ( I just need more practice)
Strong work! Is the MAF attached on one end of the 90 degree L or not yet installed. In my research about MAF location, optimal is recommended to be 10-12 inches from the throttle body. What say you? Keep on keepin on NC |
Re: My brother's Nova
It's all about the hood time! I honestly weld aluminum maybe twice a year.
I heard 6-12 inches but I'm not sure. We will probably run it there unless it causes issues. |
Re: My brother's Nova
Needed the mufflers to be offset to the side by 3 inches.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4353/...875bcbd1_b.jpg I don't remember any math...I used to love it. So I did some paper instead. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4332/...9b05e0f3_b.jpg Done! https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4395/...809fa1c5_b.jpg |
Re: My brother's Nova
Had a tank of contaminated gas so I didn't get much done in the last week but finally got the exhaust all in.
Made a hanger. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4507/...27df63c7_b.jpg The underside. Glad we spent so much time cleaning and painting. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4401/...8179711a_b.jpg |
