..just my opinion, but I wouldn't want Edelbrock covers on my Y-Block engine, because instantly most observers will associate it as being an S.B.C.

I know where you're coming from, especially with the Y distributor at the back of the engine. But, I don't really care about the people who don't know enough to know the the difference. If they say something it gives me a chance to educate. I searched long and hard for those vintage covers and like the look. Screw the people who don't know any better. Thanks for your opinion.

I believe the air cleaner is vintage Cal Custom from the 60's. I've only seen a couple of others. Mine came with a reusable K&N style filter element.

Anyone looking at your engine with Edelbrock covers and thinking its a scrub is someone in need of education. It's an oppourtunity to help them evolve a bit. Or they are just stupid and you can't help stupid!
Y's guys rule!
Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

I had someone look at mine one time, when I had original F O R D valve covers on it. They asked if it was a ch evy because the distributor was in back. I had a "Ford guy" chastise me once at a car show for swapping a che vy into the truck again, because he had seen the distributor in back.
