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?

Doug T (10/7/2019) EngineMasters Rule?
9319-HEADERS: Passenger car chassis style headers required. Header must be manufactured and cataloged to fit a specific passenger car application OEM equipped with the engine type claimed. Manufacturer’s part number must be stamped into the header (Editorial comment "better selection for scrubs"?)
Hi Ted, Is this the only header rule? If so where did the Stude guys come up a set of headers?As with any EMC rules, exceptions could be asked for and if reasonable, granted. The Studebaker headers was one of those exceptions. Likewise the intake manifold on the Studebaker engine was special and allowed an exception. Here’s a picture of the Studebaker engine on the dyno.
