    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 B*** 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.
