Some day Bill, some day. I guess the aluminum heads are probably the main difference. Chuck

Should I be jealous? Sounds like those Mummert heads really do the job. Chuck

Tom, the cost to build up a hot "Y" varies a lot with what components are put into the engine. I went the "Full Monty" so to speak which made it more expensive. I am sure that if Ted had gotten a picture of my face after the 429 hp pull, it would plainly show that it was all worth it!

Frank, both Ted and Wayne (the guy that first got me interested in the Y-Block engine) are making veiled threats if I don't take it to Columbus.
