Y Block

Hans,

I have a 1954 Ford Crestline with one of the small Y Block V-8's in it. Very strong, tough little engine, with a surprising amount of pep to it (considering it's age). I haven't touched the engine in the car in any way other than to put new points/condenser in it, and that thing runs like a sewing machine. Matched up with the three on the tree, it really does surprise me how good that old car still goes!
 
A WHOLE LOT

Of moonshine liquor was hauled around her in those old Fords, I talked to Junior Johnson once who told me it was really unbelievable just how much you could do with a old Ford motor, also, many Fords had their powertrain changed to Cadillac and Olds engines....then they would REALLY fly!
