Heh. I run the same ones.

[Lt1_8U]

do you like them? i have yet to drive a car with coil overs

[WildBillyT]

Yup. More specifically, mine is the big block pro coil system with 450lb/350lb springs.

Handles great.

Cranked down most of the way, with no hood:

[Lt1_8U]

awesome i cant wait to feel how well this handles withe the coil overs and tubular a arms

[WildBillyT]

Add a decent front sway bar and it won't be recognizable as a Nova based on handling.

I was selling Chevrolets back in 1968-70 and one of the rarest NOVA's I had in stock was a 1969 NOVA SS in white with a red interior and a factory 396 425 hp big block stuffed into it. Try and find one today, as I don't even see them come across the block at Barrett-Jackson.
