what Badb0y is saying is true. Ry_B also questioned getting 118bhp from a nova (quoted novaGTE)

could do five miles and die, could do another 200k, you never know.

Check the oils clean, the airfiltewrs clean and its service history is the best you can do.

I wouldnt be put off by it at all, the smallblock 8vs are nigh on indestructible, esp with a 6200 limiter

120,000 mine did without any trouble apart from a snapped clutch cable and a few perished seals etc on the carb only major thing was the cam was starting to tick loud so i bought a full sr for £170 with 77,000 on and fitted the engine for £150
