Looking good, again. I'll bet this time there will be a lot of checking around the fuel linkage! I bought a new Fairlane back in 69 and drove the s(&^% out of it. I was lucky to get one of the dealer prepped 428 Super Cobra Jet, Fairlane Cobra's. Lightened with a 4:30 Detroit locker and 4 speed. It was everything they say it was. Super fast car. 6 months later me, the wife and the Cobra were all transferred to Germany. Now that there was FUN! Conrad never saw it coming. But thats another story. Chuck
Y's guys rule! Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

Hey everyone just thought I would post a pic of my dad's 68 Torino. It doesn't have a Y in it but I would think you would all appreciate a nice old ford. I has a built 302 with Edlebrock Performer aluminum heads, performer intake, cam and 150 shot of Nitrous. It's a great joy driving this car.

Well I have my computers wired in and my differential is supposed to be here tomorow. I will post some pics if it makes it. I also have a new intercooler on its way. The piping will go in the sides and come out the middle straight to the throttle body. We are having a car show and dyno day at the shop May 18th and I am hoping to have this running by then. I also ordered new front bumper and side skirts and a roll pan for the rear bumper. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks we will make some serious progress on this project since the weather is finally above freezing!!!

Hutz 292 (3/24/2013) If I remember I am running around 6 degrees at 24 psi. We are at 19 degrees @ 0 vacuum or 90 kpa.Those advances sounds pretty low. I have seen couple of turbo maps where 250 kpa / 3000 rpm advance are 14-19 and if I understand right, 100 kpa / 3000 rpm advance should be close to 36 with iron headed Y with or without chargers.

Got some updated pics from the project. Nice front view of the setup and I don't think I have posted a pic of the new truck yet.   This is the new home for the Y!  My E4OD with the new 2wd output shaft, fit like a dream.  I have my new 2in drop spindles and rear drop shackles installed. I have to wait until my new diff shows up so I can have a driveshaft built. Only thing we will have to build will be the brackets for the shocks to bolt up to. The 12in disc brakes will be installed and my brake cables should work. I already ordered my wheel adapters so we can use the wheels and tires I just bought for my other truck since they have a total of about 5 miles on them!

The feed oil comes from the oil port back by the oil filter. The inside of the block has been drilled out so the oil will pass right throuh aluminum block. Prior we just had a 4 way block at the oil feed posrt on the engine and ran two lines from there. This will look nice with two braided lines coming from it.

I like the fuel pump block off. Mine doubles as a fuel line bracket for connecting the flex line from the frame.
