Engine types for pro-touring Novas come in a variety of options.
Drivers may choose between the Small Block Chevy or SBC motors, which have cubic inch displacements that range from 302 cubic inches to 350 cubic inches.
The Big Block Chevy or BBC motors range from 396 cubic inches on up.
Fuel delivery systems are either carbureted or electronically fuel injected.
The fuel-injection system is the most preferred, and that is due to: lower maintenance, consistent fuel delivery, and improved performance efficiency.
