RB (12/23/2014)
Frank we dropped compression from a static 10.5 to 8.5 . Careful gasket prep and switched to a Best gasket. Increase bolt torque and careful re-torquing.. Changed to a cam with less cranking pressure... Pray Timing, We run no more than 30 total.

Y block Billy (12/22/2014)
I think Commander Cody wrote a song about that engine! Billy, the song was written by Charlie Ryan and referenced a V12 Lincoln. Later on Johnny Bond covered the song and changed the wording to include the V8 Lincoln. Commander Cody subsequently did a really good cover of the song and kept the V8 wording.

And that motor definately fits the bill as a Hot Rod Lincoln no matter what they were singing about!

Great looking engine.......Every V-8 looks better with dual Quads...A blower makes it even better.

Great numbers. And with an engine that’s less supported by the aftermarket industry than the Y is.
