The Nova had most of it chassie leg cut out, and re-shaped.
I hope you're good with a grinder and a welder.
As you can see, they don't fit very well.

I would say that its the type of conversion where if you need to ask on here, you probably aren't capable of doing it. There isn't much info out there as to what works and what has been tried and tested. Certainly not a step by step guide. You will find more info on google than you will on here.
