Good to see you back Wayne.  The results of the 2009 EMC competition have already been published in Popular Hot Rodding and the Engine Masters magazine which both did the Y movement justice.  The Engine Masters magazine may still be on the newstands but the Popular Hotrodding piece was awhile back.  Here’s a link to a thread regarding last years EMC competition.

And here’s the link to the first article that was published in the Y-Block magazine.

The EMC rules committee have modified the rules to allow engines that came factory equipped with solid lifters to compete alongside the hydraulic lifter entries.  Here’s the excerpt from the Feb 11th rules revision that gets the Y back into the show.  The letters to the rules committee have obviously been heard and the response was definitely positive.

 

Hydraulic flat-tappets and hydraulic roller designs are only lifter type legal. Mushroom, solid, ceramic, or composite lifters, for example “Schubeck” lifters are prohibited unless factory installed OEM item for engine used / Example: Ford Y-Block 312 engines.

 

With this latest development, I’ll be working on a new Y combination for this year.  Until the rules revision, I was looking at several other engine options.  This would be a great place to showcase the aluminum heads and introduce them to the media.  I'll add that there's another Y-Blocker out there that's sending in an application form for a Y entry.  I'll not say who that is until they speak up.  Two or more Y's in this competition would be exceptional.

I sent off an email to questions@enginemasters.com a few minutes ago. Hopefully, EMC will have another Y block in the line up.
