Thanks everyone. It was an incredible feeling to fire this thing for the first time. I have never been part of a project from start to finish like this one before. It was my brothers first complete project too and he said his last until he retires and has more time on his hands. We will see. He has mentioned he wants a 32 Ford for the next toy but the Nova won't be going anywhere.

all said and done does he know how much $$$ he has in it?

most projects like this end up being 2X what you think.

It's a ZZ383 Stroker GM Crate. I think the engine dyno was around 440HP with Torque at 480.

More than he could sell it for without a doubt but I don't have a figure. His car his money. I just helped build it. Building something like this in Canada you can tack on about 40% more in costs to what it would be to do in the US but he did make several trips to Sweetgrass Montana to pick up stuff he ordered from the States.
