I was totally surprised yesterday morning with a USPS package on my front door mat from Bruce Young with several copies of Y Block Magazine.  I had no idea that there was an article going to be written on the Eaton Balancing/Craine Porting 303 cubic inch Y for this year's EMC.  I want to publicly thank Ted for all his help with this engine, and my only regret is that with this being possibly the last year for EMC, that the little engine was down 24 hp from when we left Texas.  If we could have found those horsepower and torque numbers in Ohio, the outcome would have been much better for the Y against the more modern, yet vintage engines.  Ted fabricated several items for our build, and we tried some things that were definitely pushing the envelope, but came away with a Y Block that produced 1.5 hp/cubic inch, and it held its own against some sharp engine builders from all over the USA.  Thank you Y Block Magazine, and thank you Ted Eaton for the article and all your help.  Joe-JDC

I meant to post this in This and That section, sorry. JDC
