I don't think they do, I've searched several times and never found any thing. I don't think that they even have a catalog, but from all accounts they are good folks to deal with. Juess you just call them and see what they have. He has run ads in YBM before with a phone number.

Y-Guy      For your info, I just recieved a set of rocker shafts, from

        them, and they already had the oil holes slotted, like Ted did,

        in the YBM, a few issue's back. They were made from a thicker

        wall tubing also.   Great service, Good people.............

Verne does supply catalog and price list, though it is not Y-block specific. (Quote from catalog/blurb: "Want a multi color catalog? Try crayons!") He is also very hard-core proponent of pressurizing rocker shafts for racing use.

Schumann last ran a Y-Blk Ad in issue #85 of YBM. That's Mar/April of 2008. Mummert ran an Ad also, so you can compare to some degree. One thing Schumann claims to have on hand, which seems to be largely unavailable elsewhere, is the 1957 "D" code cam, which was the best std regular cam Ford offered.

Regarding the D code cam.  I ordered one, sent it to JM for analysis, and it was consistent with a late model truck cam.  Results of the analysis were sent to Verne, along with the return.  There was no problems in getting credited on the purchase for some rod bushings and other items.  Hate to be negative but that is what happened.  Still have the results here somewhere.

I had a non pleasant experience as well . After paying for a set of 292 + .040 Hyper  pistons ,plus an arm and a leg in freight costs to send them  half way around the world .They  turned out to be 135 grams heavier than stock pistons ????? .After trying to phone 8 or 9 times  I was told quote " there not advertised as light wieght pistons " . I was DARN sure there was nothing in the ad that said they were 135 grams HEAVIER ????  For the same cost I could have bought a set of Ross forged pistons .Any chance of a refund ??? Not likely . I now spend my hard earned with John Mummert . Great service & great prices .JMO
