I am putting a y block and a 39 ****** in my 29 model a coupe. Post pictures of yours or whoevers Model A with a Y block in it.
Here's my old T-Coupster on Model A Rails with a 292/3spd/9" from '58 F-100. Had a NOS Hurst front plate motor mount.
dont have pics but put a 56 292 in my 30 coupe streatched the frame 7 1/2 inches so i could keep the stock firewall running a top loader 4 speed
Here's my Y-powered A PU lined up against a Y-powered T roadster at Mokan a couple years ago. I have a 312 with a 4 spd toploader.
bttt I don't have one or any pics, but those are one of my favorite motors in a open hood car as far as looks. I even like the stock non t-bird covers.
The Ford and Mercury are the same. The lincolns have different heads and other things that set them apart. Like those cool *** Lincoln Valve covers that wont fit a ford or Merc! From what I know not much is interchangeable. I'm sure someone more knowledgable will chime in with all the differences, which I wouldn't mind knowin myself.
Are any body mods needed to put a 292 Y block in a 1930 Model A? I remember reading somewhere that a shorter water pump is needed, but would you have to turn the fire wall around as well? Great thread here!
Model As and Y-Blocks, great combo! You know I love 'em! Here's one of mine running on a stand. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwyTHxB25o8&feature=channel_page
How about a blown Y-block in a '32? http://www.autotradercl***ics.com/a...e.xhtml?articleId=42160&conversationId=166180
