Nova all day. Ford has 2 351's. A windsor, usually found in trucks and large cars. And a Clevland which was the modified version found in Mustangs and I think some other ford cars.

I may be wrong but I bet he has the windsor in the torino. If so, its the lower power rated of the two. I built a 351 windsor to put in a Cobra kit car (more redily available) and got around 400 hp pretty easily.

Chevy's 350 is a little easier to get power out of though (not knocking Ford guys) just due to available parts. And the Nova is prob much lighter. So sight unseen, Id have to give the Nova the nod.

I believe 1968 Chevys had small block choices of 307 and 327.

The 350 first became available in 1967. The Nova SS recieved the 350 in 1968.

Well, since you didnt know for sure that 350 was a v8 it should be an interesting race. Even if the nova is faster.

Oopps, my bad. You usually see Novas that have been switched over to the 350, so I just assumed. At any rate, if its the 327 you have, Id still feel pretty good. If its the 305, eh... dunno.
