building a 71 nova stocker?

Yep. Build it as a 69, with a 12 bolt and CalTracs, and buy the stuff Brian Oakes has for sale.

I ran the 71 motor in my nova for about 2 years. The best I went in H/SA was 11.37 with over a 100 runs on the motor. Woodro Josey built the motor and it was really strong. It's a real good combo I think it's currently rated at 270/274. I have a set of the heads and intake for that combo forsale for $125 if you are interested.

Bill the 350 in 71 and 72 is only rated 278, I do not believe a 307 came in 1971 Nova

It was a 350 in 71' used a turbo 350 with 5.13 gears.
If I remember correctly it's a G,H,I combo.
