Scotto’s 555 Big Block Nova Runs Again! You Won’t Believe How Much Work it Took...
Scotto’s ’72 big block-having Napalm Nova has been in the background of countless shots on our channel for a while now. Sometimes even in the background of his own new project builds. But after catching enough heat from all of us for not getting it running (and catching a new nickname, thanks to Hert), El Gigante is turning a new leaf in 2021: getting more of his cars on the road, than NOT on the road. And that starts with the Nova. So, what mechanical mountains did he have to climb to get this thing ready to shred again?

It's not like El Gigante doesn't employ a number of mechanics who he could direct to make his cars run: The cars wait for him to work on them because that's what he enjoys! As always, hats off to El Gigante!

The fact that Scotto chooses to work on his cars personally is really respectable.. but telling me that you could have had this running and driving for years and didn't do it just cause you're busy is really sad, imagine all the missed opportunities you could have enjoyed this car during the last couple years!

Scotto's car finally run? This is another leap for mankind.
The napalm Nova is such a badass car it just oozes everything that defines macho.
“mainly just didn’t want to get my truck wet” those with snow and salted roads are jealous
The legendary nova needs its own burn yard session, all of us OG viewers wanna see it shred tyres and it’ll be educational for all the new viewers to listen to a Scotto tangent about the nova🤟🏽
Wow Scotto, it would almost be impressive that you showed us two of your cars running in the same video... it would be if we hadn’t been waiting for two years to see it! Much love from your neighbours to the north, keep up the great content, also keep getting those cars running and maybe you won’t have to dye your hair again!
Always cool seeing Scotto get to his projects. He's got a unique way of doing things that's interesting to watch
This beauty has /got/ to show up in a This Vs. That!

Napalm Nova's my absolute favorite Hoonigan build, it's just got great stance, the chop is *excellent* the whole thing is just absolutely fantastic, super excited to see it out and about again.
oh damn Scotto is doing something on one of his cars? is he feeling alright or should we call a doctor and have him tested?
Damn, I can't believe it took yall that long to figure that out... (looks over at my Chevelle and Trans Am)... Nevermind.

Napalm is looking awesome.. tiers are perfect and ground space, it just looks wield
That nova is sick. I love that body style.
I was so expecting one of two things to happen during the credits. One was flashing blue and red behind him, for being 'over excited' on driving it again, the second would be for it to stall out. That would have been hilarious.
It's good to see the old hoonigan build aka the napalm nova
The fact that Scotto watches Adam Savage's Tested made me happy. Nerds unite!
This made my day, my week, my month, and maybe even my year. So glad to see the Napalm Nova running again.
I'm so happy to see the Nova finally getting the love it deserve because I love gloden age muscle cars more than any other cars with Novas being up there among my most favorite among them. I've always conaidered the Napalm Nova to be the best car in the garage and I'm stoked it finally has Scotto getting it back to being the roaring monster it was always meant to be
I appreciate the motivation. With all that you guys accomplish it's nice to see you're human like the rest of us. Late night working on your own crap after work.

I have learned from a couple of buddy’s who are super old school and the best way to fill the cooling system is through the intake where the water neck goes. It’ll fill the block before the rad and you will have less of a chance to get a big air bubble.
Congrats Scotto! That's got to feel sooo good to drive the Nova again especially with the cooling hopefully sorted. It's got to be incredibly frustrating having cool projects like this but a lack of time to work on them. Plus every joker online giving you a hard time... I really dig this car and am surprised how much I like the smaller rims. I think it deserves to be more than a mere burnout car. Whatever you do, I'd like to see it street driven.
Scotto and Hert been killing it in terms of getting cars running during Covid.
That thing looks soooo good cruising down the road at night!!!
What is this sorcery, Scotto is actually getting to work? STOP THE PRESS THE WORLD MUST KNOW
i have been looking for any vids i can on this thing. glad to see it running.....for now lol
Watching Scotto work, gets me excited no homo
Yeeeeessssss!!!!!!!!!! So happy to see the nova back on the road
Pica Pen FTW! Such a valuable tool to have when making stuff
Congratulations Scotto. Always feels good to get these old cars back on the road🤘
An old school trick my brother taught me to bleed the cooling system is to remove a heater hose when you're filling the radiator and when you get coolant / water coming out reinstall the hose and finish filling the system. This will push any air out of the block and essentially burp it
I personally just like watching El Gigante work on his cars because it’s the only thing he doesn’t have to try and herd cats to get done lol PS: don’t ever give away Napalm as a part of deal of some sort. I’d hate to see it leave.
