I am confused. I subscribe to Legendary Ford which has a few Y-block articles. Is there a magazine devoted strictly to y-blocks?

I am surprised that there are still Y-Blockers on this forum that have not been introduced to Y-Block Magazine. We should make every effort to support it and make its presents known in every welcome we give to newbies. This is just a great little "subscription only" magazine that has been with us for 90 issues and is printed every two months. Hmmm.......... that is 180 months divided by 12..........Wow, it is the 15th year anniversary!!! There are great perpetual technical articles by Jerry Christenson, Ted Eaton and John Mummert (the big hitters). Bob Martin does a Y-Block activities report that is super comprehensive. There are also contributed articles by the likes of Fuszner, Ruzicka, Feistritzer, Gaston, Thrasher, Rice, Jessup, Leeking, McMaster and even me. The Editor/Publisher is Bruce M. Young and the magazine's email address is yblockmag@yahoo.com. Bruce makes it happen and the contributors make it great. The "Link" tab on the Y-Blocksforever home page will also give you the Y-Block Magazine contact. Support it.

Although I have been fooling around with y-blocks for almost 50 years, I am relatively new to the forum. I tried before to find the magazine and before when I Googled Y-blocks forever the hits are all on Legendary Ford Magazine which is sort of a disappointment to me because it emphasizes muscle cars and I was still driving a y block when the muscle car started and long after the era ended with the oil embargo of the early 70's. I should have asked sooner. Thanks for the the information. I never see the home page because I have the forums bookmarked.

According to the "Race Official ", Randy Gummelt ,I was declared the winner ??? Remember when I picked up the scooter and ran across the finish line ??? ( the rules clearly state ,the first one over the finish line is the winner ). That was me !!!! Oh, Rob you must be thinking of the SECOND race ???? The one that was staged for the cameras. ??? From my memory of the race ,the loser had to drop his pants ??? I don't see a photo of me with my pants around my ankles ??? Aussie outsmarts Canadian ,AGAIN !!!!!!!! Until next time , Lon PS . Race Officials decision is final .

Lon, Lon, It was a SCOOTER race! Not a RUNNING race in which you raced against YOURSELF!!! (I think you still lost!!! LOL  ) and regardless of what you say, it is in print that I have won AGAIN!!!! What is that 4, 5 times, I'm loosing count! I don't mean to humiliate you my friend, but why don't you just give up and admit defeat once and for all! It will be less painful for you! LOL Frank, as for the under wear, I was just showing my respect to my "not so worthy" apponet, by waving the flag of his contry. It was just symbolism to have them covering my butt, you know the whole "down under" thing!!! It was meant out of pure respect, I assure you!! As for my legs, I was told I should insure them just like Tina Turner did as the ladies find them QUITE attractive!!!

I always say that if people think you are strange or crazy they will leave you alone! So call me weird if you will, only problem is that this only applies to so-called "normal" people! The other wierdos will still bug you!!!! LOL

To quote my Daughters, (who think they're normal.) "None of you clowns are wrapped too tight." There may be a grain of truth in that, but I'll never admit it to her.

I just look at it this way, some people say my glass is half empty, others say it is half full. I just say "I need more beer"!!!!!! Either way, just indicates to me your glass is twice the size you need! Probably contributes to "Global Warming" too. By the way, I was in Eastern Ontario a couple weeks back, crossed the bridge at the 1000 islands area. At the mouth of the St Lawrence. That's neat, beautiful scenery. Saw quite a few of the island homes and cottages. lotsa bucks (or Looneys)

Frank, You should have called me! I would have bought you a beer, in a BIG glass! That is about 2 hours from my home, but I would have gladly made the drive. Where did you head from there, twards Quebec or back down the 401 twards Toronto? Also Chuck did you get my email re: the Traction masters?
