I once bought a 1966 Shelby GT 350 that was a former drag strip car. The motor had been replaced with a later 302 but in the trunk were a pair of fully ported VHS, Valley Head Service HIPO heads AND a fordged Y block crank that had been used in the 289 block. I of course traded it for some junk. OH WELL. Pete

Bill, thanks for the photos. Later on next week, I do plan to tear into my B9AE block that I just purchased. I had no idea that it could have a steel forged crank, but I do believe that this is most probably a replacement. If that is the case, it should spec out with minimal wear. I am pretty eager to get into it, but I do not have too much time. Just hung my Y block banner in the new pole barn/garage with no floor, no electric, and no garage doors. But, it's official!

Obviously the heading for this thread is incorrect, as McTim hinted. The pics are of a C1TE 292 steel crank. BTW: Bill, rockers are on the way.
