    Anyone else here using a T5 with a yblock? Heres mine about ready to go in.

    Also I am considering the Walker Cobra BC498-1 radiator. Has any used this on a stock y block?

    thanks

    I'm gonna run a T-5, 312 Y Block in my 5 Window. Kinda concerned about the Modifications I'll have to make to the Firewall! I'll be running a Grant Flamethrower Distributor, and hate to butcher a good Firewall! Have you had to make any changes to yours?

    I am planning the firewall modification. Not 100% sure what I will do yet.

    No. The 2dr sedan doors are quite a bit longer than any other door in 33 or 34. Really neat find. If you have any trouble with the top, those Austin boys, Kail, Dreddybear, or Brian Bass from Dallas will make short work out of it. Those guys should build cars for a living. HUH ?

    Hey, Dan Hay. Can you tell me a little about the run on 6-14-14 ? Is it open to anyone with a streetrod ? I haven't seen anything on it, I live in San Antonio, and must be missing something somewhere. I didn't see your '38 at Austin, but I didn't see half of the cars since it was so freaking big. Hope to hear from you. Gary Addcox.
