Thought I would share some pics of what I'm putting in my wagon. The old
The new

The new looks GREAT, but the old looks pretty good too, just not enough HP.

Thanks. Sorry for the sideways pic. Not sure how that happened. The 6 did not run that good. Had low compression and a dead miss that I think was valve related. I hope to have it in before the snow flies to get a test drive and tune the carbs.

The Y looks great, that should be fun. I just noticed the 223 is a later model or at least has a later head. I still run a 223 in my 60 F100 and love it..

I think it's a 1960 vintage. I was kinda bummed when it didn't run very good. Especially after the seller told me otherwise. Another casualty of buying a car off the Internet. It will run good when I'm done with it though.

It looks like a nice 223. If it just runs doggy it could be the vacuum advance canister, there is only vacuum advance, no mechanical, and when they go bad they are a dog.

It had the original load o matic dizzy on it and I put in a newer mechanical advance 240/300 dizzy with pertronix and a rebuilt carb. It did help but not much. I had the 292 anyway so out came the 6.

NICE!

Good looking Y.  What intake are the dueses on?

You gotta have the right tools and know how to use 'em.
