[General Car News]Meet the 1972 Chevrolet Napalm Nova, Hoonigan’s gorgeous muscle car – Video


Recommended Posts

This amazing muscle car was built by Brian Scotto, car enthusiast and brand director of Hoonigan. He spent many hours of work to ensure it would be ready for the 2015 Power Tour, and the final result is one of the most bad ass muscle cars in the world.Hoonigan 1972 Chevrolet Napalm Nova-01
Revealed at last year’s Hot Rod Power Tour, the Hoonigan Napalm Nova has been designed and constructed for one thing in mind, to destroy all tires.
Napalm Nova is powered by mildly reworked 454 engine. Outfitted with an MSD Atomic EFI kit, a nod to drivability, and a Tremec T56 six-speed manual the drivetrain generates around 400 hp. The car sits on top of a Art Morrison Enterprises subframe and suspension kit and a trick three link rear end. Based on the Corvette’s suspension, the kit improves the Nova’s handling around corners and day-to-day driving.
The Nova rides on American Racing Wheels AR767 15×8 shod with Hankook Ventus Tires (265/50/15 and 295/50/15), while stopping comes from a set of Wilwood Ultralite brakes with a Wilwood manual master cylinder.

Other important highlights include AutoMeter X Hoonigan gauges, Denso Iridium Plugs, DEI Thermal and Sound Boommat, Centerforce Clutch, Mr. Gasket hardware and gaskets, Takata Harnesses and Sparco Evo3 Seats.
