This year, Ted and I are bringing another Y Block to the EMC.  The rules are quite restrictive this time around, and it will be almost pure Ford Y block.  It is a 292 +.062 and the stroke is 3.310" with 113 iron heads at 10.45:1 compression, Mike Jones camshaft with .591", Mummert dual plane intake, BG 930 DP carb, FPA Thunderbird headers, MSD ignition, belt driven water pump, etc.  We have tried several combination of heads, valve sizes, valve springs, carbs, intakes, spacers, etc., and finally think we have a decent little Y for the challenge.  There will be two 327 scrubys, 2 BB scrubys, 2 FEs, 2 Ford 429/460, Stude, Olds, Buick, Pontiac, 413 Chrysler, 289 SBF. and a couple of others I can't recall.  We are scheduled to run 6th on Monday the 30th.  Any guesses for horsepower and torque?

The EMC Y entry is currently sitting in fourth place.  There are still a rash of engines left to run and the engine that's scheduled to run early tomorrow morning is expected to go to first place which will knock the Y down to fifth place. I look for that particular Wednesday morning engine to being the high score overall.  It's just a wait and see right now to find out where the Y ultimately ends up in the field.  More details to come as they become available.  I can see now that the roller cammed entries have a definite advantage over our flat tappet entry.  Ted.
