Nova 2.0 8v on throttle bodies re-build

[_Jake]

Awesome car, hope the 8v stays!

Im loving this (minus the bodging) i also hope it stays 8v.
Oh also i have a turbo manifold to fit this but if your engines an seh it will be to high compression.

The car looks great, with a big spec engine to cmbine fantastic.

Yeah don't let the cowboying put you off; overall this looks to be a good point to build from.

It's as if someone with money suddenly showed it love then wanted to get rid after damaging the engine. Would you consider crossing over to C20XE? It's not going to weight more really & would be a world away for relatively little work / expense.

not sure on engine yet. ive put the engine on ebay if it makes good money i will get c20let.

Looks like you are doing it justice mate, have decent spec LET ready if and when you need it

keep finding rust !! i remember what that thing was that i hate about novas now..... bloody rust !! what's annoying is that i built a good few novas and im now doing it all over again when i should of just kept my last one ! who has it i want it back to re-shell this one and save me hours of welding.

Ive had to bodge a car to get it home before now but never to the standard of some of this work.
Glad to see your fixing it and i thought it was my old shell at first until i see the reg.
Good luck with the build.

Keep your chin up and graft at it. It'll be worth it in the end

well 8v is sold and i went and brought another nova with 2 redtop engines but the redtop in it has kent cams, 45 webber carbs and a btb manifold down side i was thinking of using the engine but its not very fast so im just going to break it and sell all the bits and get c20let engine for the white one and be done with it
