not sure what the 0-60 of a valver is but i shall find out at trax, topspeed you'll find the speed will go off the clock being as nova speedos are crap an they only go up to 130mph. But they do do the 1/4mile in around 14/15 secs which is about 2 seconds faster than calibra witht the same engine due the bloated weight of the cavs/calibras
