I have never believed that really we needed aluminum heads for Y`s. Thats the kind of thinking that makes the scrub guys so annoying, just throw $$$$ at it to go fast.   Aluminum heads would of course make more power but wouldn`t really separate good mechanics and racers from the guys with more money.  After all if we were all really serious about racing in non bracket type classes it wouldn`t be Yblock Fords no matter what.

But what would be a lot more fun to play with and would be much less expensive to get into small scale production would be replacement type Hilborns with provision for Electronic spray nozzles.  Well need may be a bit strong but that is just my former and current thinking on the state of the Y world.  Are you listening FrankHehe
