1970 Chevrolet Nova
1970 Chevrolet Nova – Pro Touring Powerhouse with 540ci Fury
Get ready to meet one of the most sinister street machines on the road today—a fully built 1970 Chevrolet Nova that blends outrageous horsepower, modern tech, and jaw-dropping style into one unforgettable package. With a monstrous 540ci V8, Turbo 400 automatic, and a full Pro Touring setup underneath, this Nova isn’t just a car—it’s a statement.
Engineered for Domination
Beneath the hood roars a professionally built 540ci big block V8, topped with an Edelbrock intake, Holley carburetor, Blueprint aluminum heads, and a full MSD ignition system. Spent gasses are channeled through ceramic-coated long tube headers and a full 3″ exhaust system—with electronic cutouts when you really want to wake the block. This beast breathes through a BeCool aluminum radiator, dual electric fans, and a Billet Specialties front runner serpentine setup, keeping temps down while performance stays up.
Modernized Muscle Meets Custom Class
Every inch of the Nova’s interior has been reimagined, from the custom leather seats to the suede headliner and custom trunk enclosure. Inside you’ll find Autometer gauges, a chrome tilt steering column, push-button start, remote start, and power windows, locks, and door poppers—all wrapped in a cockpit that feels both vintage and futuristic.
With a roll cage for added stiffness and safety, plus a custom sound system and LED lighting, this is a car that’s as thrilling inside as it is under throttle.
Suspension & Chassis: Built to Carve
Underneath, the Nova features top-tier Pro Touring hardware:
- Viking double adjustable coilovers (front and rear)
- SpeedTech Performance torque arm rear suspension
- SpeedTech tubular front control arms
- Detroit Speed front sway bar
- Subframe connectors
- Aftermarket Ford 9” rearend
Stopping power is just as serious, with Wilwood rear disc brakes, 4-wheel disc brakes, drilled rotors, and a Hydroboost braking system for track-level control.
Exterior & Extras
Shaved door handles, hood pins, halo front headlights, and American Racing Torque Thrust wheels give this Nova an aggressive stance and modern flair. Other custom touches include:
- Vintage Air A/C & Heat
- Fabricated valve covers
- Aluminum Edelbrock water pump
- Stainless steel fuel tank
- Fire extinguisher (because you’ll need to tame the beast!)
