New Nova Owner

[superchargednova78]

hello my fellow nova fans. i just recently bought a 1978 nova. actually a very rare year to see customized and running 700whp under the hood. i love it. bought it off my dad so it wouldnt end up in a chop shop in the ghetto and now we can finish the car together. the exterior is pretty much done but the inside is far from finished so im fishing for some dashboard and gauge cluster ideas. mind you its a race car and not being restored to factory specs. everything is custom. i was thinking of going with the all aluminum custom dash but have really no idea what to do with the gauge cluster. any ideas?

Have you looked at sites like www.summitracing.com or www.jegs.com to see what is available?

For the dash cluster u could use the factory dash take the factory cluster out put a piece of black plastic sheet to it drill some holes out for the cluster. They sell universal ones that are 3.5 dia and you should be able to fit everything in the factory location without mounting any clusters outside the dash
