The Nova gave up a tremendous part of its performance value in 1971 when the big block disappeared completely from its list of available power plants. Even in the smog-laden, low-compression form, big blocks were still a part of the picture for the Chevelle and Camaro lineups. But tightening emissions and a decreased demand spelled doom for the Nova. With a Q jet fed 350 as its means of motivation, a 1971 Nova SS could click off low 15 second clockings at about 89 mph. With a few standard hop-up procedures, the Nova SS could start to deliver on its performance promise. The ET could drop to mid 14s at speeds over 94 mph without sacrificing reliability or raising compression above its normal 8.5:1 ratio. Transmission availability for the SS was somewhat restricted. A decision had to be made between a wide ratio four speed or the Turbo 350 automatic. Like the Camaro, the 1971 Chevy Nova was virtually indistinguishable from its immediate predecessor. Perhaps the most easily discernible difference was the lack of front fender louvers. Super Sport medallions could still be found in the grille and rear cove areas, both of which received the blacked-out treatment. Further proof that performance was becoming less important was evidenced by the fact that the bright engine trim. Previously included as part of the SS package was conspicuously absent. While disc brakes remained a part of the SS package, the vented rally wheels that accompanied them were also relegated to optional status. The base wheel became a 7x14-inch steel unit sporting what was essentially a baby moon hubcap with the Chevrolet Bow-Tie embossed in its center. There were a total of only 7,015 Super Sport Novas constructed during the model year. A sizable drop from the previous years sales of 19,558 Nova SS. The 1972 Nova SS could be had with only one engine. Buyers could however specify either a three-speed automatic or a four-speed manual transmission to back it up. The engine was the L48 small-block, displacing 350 cubic inches and fed through a single four-barrel carburetor. Its horsepower rating was pegged at 200 (net horsepower figures were now used). This was good enough for 15.4 quarter mile ETs with a trap speed of over 88 mph. A unique option was added to the Nova line midway through the production year - a sliding fabric sunroof known as the Skyroof. Officially called the Ventura II Folding Sunroof, it was installed on 6,822 Novas in 1972. Each color carried its own RPO code: White (RPO-WV1), Black (RPO-WV2), Blue (RPO-WV4), Pewter (RPO-WV5), Covert (RPO-WV7), Tan (RPO-WV9) and Green (RPO-YH8). The Rally Nova continued production in 1972 with a total of 33,319 built. Source: Classic, GM, 1972 Chevy Nova Trivia, Specs, History and Facts! Get Financing for the 1972 Nova Click Here!
