Tom,
What a find!
Are all those blocks 194s?
In the video it looks like the dipstick is in the rear so maybe that block won't fit in the Novas. Though maybe there is a spot in the casting to drill for a forward sump.
(Or maybe Studebakers were rear sumps?-IDK)
I guess same goes for all those oil pans.

Oh BTW: Maybe you can repeat this trick with a truckload of fitted 292 blocks smile
