Default Re: V/S Stick "Dime Rocket"

Guys we actually ran a Nova back in the day with 4.56 gears, a short like 27-28" tall tire and a 2.88 first gear super t10. This was back before the current radical stocker regrinds but with a 194 c.i. 6 cyl (.040 over) and a good head we ran low to mid 15s. Ran way under in the 1/8 th mile so we ran that mostly. If I recall correctly we weighed 2880#. If I were to do this today, I would use an aluminum flywheel, at least a 4.88 gear and would use a Nash 5 speed with 5th gear blocked so as to run as a 4 speed. By using this type of transmission it is easier to "underdrive first gear" so you can run a 3 something first gear. Believe this combo would still work....But if you want to run a totally unique Chevy combo, run the Chevy II with the 4 cyl instead of the in line 6.
