Hi everybody. I've just joined the forum. First off, I've known and loved y-blocks for 35 years. My first love was a 56 Victoria 2 door hardtop. I purchased it in 1979 and I still own it. Amazingly enough I have never modified a y- block. The reason that this is ironic is because modifying engines is what I do. I own a 5 axis cnc head porting machine and a Superflow 600 flowbench and on any given day my son and I can be found in the shop carving out a living. We see cast iron gt-40 heads, pro-stock style heads and everything in between. The hustle and bustle of making a living has kept me away from my Vicky for so long. About two months ago, I decided to make getting that 56 rolling a priority. This includes a shiny new paint job, all new upholstery, and a dual quad 292. Which brings me here. Id like to consult the knowledgeable people here for this build. I have a good deal of race engine experience, but little y-block experience. I will try my hand at porting a set o ECZ-G heads. I am open to advice and constructive criticism and I will keep you guys posted about my progress. Thanks in advance.
