Ted Eaton takes his 375 inch ford Y to the Engine Masters Challenge and changes perception of his Cold War classic. This is in the new Modified Mustangs & Fords magazine page 44 and the front cover says Prehistoric Muscle: Building a 540HP 375CI Ford Y-BLOCK.

Cool. I wonder, did they just find out about it??

The mags know all about it, they just dont want to admit that they have been wrong for 50 years.

James Smart (Modified Mustangs and Fords) first contacted me last May regarding an article on the Y entries for both years at the Engine Masters Challenge. Since that time I simply forwarded him pictures and technical info on the engine at which point he put together the text. I just received my copy and James did a good job in combining both years of the Y in the EMC into a single write-up. Some pretty good ink for a ‘dinosaur’engine.

Ted the article turned out well. Should help keep you busy for some time, as if you needed that. I'm surprised how many people have mentioned the article. i didn't know the magazine had that good a following.

i just got to finishing reading that article. i thought it was pretty well done also.
some great ink for eaton and mummert.
and i admit the Y is coming round with popularity.

flatheads may be getting too expensive and the Y is the next in line for hot rodding.

maybe its the same firing order? dunno, but its all good stuff.

This ain't no L-Kamino!

Which issue is it? I looked for one tonight but didn't find it.

Walmart has it. (At least the one in Jackson,MS that I was in.) There is a photo of a blue 2011 Mustang GT that has been re-skinned with '68 sheetmetal on the front cover.

Here’s the cover shot of the mag. Just look for the Y on the lower left of the cover. It's the May 2013 issue.
