I posted this topic in the HAMB, and it started a hailstorm of replies.  Mostly from Ford haters.  I think that won't be an issue in here...

I'm looking for info on what the fellas did back in the day to make the Y-blocks DOMINATE the NASCAR circuit. I tried googling...must not have typed the right sequence of wording in, because I couldn't find anything...

any little piece of knowledge will work...I'm building my 292 up for LSR, looking for ideas. thanks once again. JL

I did read the Y-Block write up recently in HRD(?), and they had some good info.  Jsut wondering what I can do to make my little 292 operate to its' max potential.  Nothing TOO expensive...just stuff a normal guy can do with normal tools, and a THIN walet...
