Has anyone found a good use for an old Y-block? I am about to remove mine and wanted to find out what other uses they are good for. Maybe a stationary power supply to water crops? Help me out.

at the momentiam rebuilding mine i have heard of people using them to hot rod with. some say 60 over put an rv cam and a four barrel intake with a modified fuel injection and some upgraded timing gears and get alot of extra unseen horse.

 

After doing some research and asking questions, I decided that the lack of experience with the old fords and the higher cost of replacment parts did not justify building a daily driver with the 292. Very soon I hope to install a 351W and didn't want to just scrap the 292. I have two of them now and thought I could sell them as a stationary power supply or irrigation pump or something. These engines seem to have a lot of low end torque and would be ideal for low RPM, long duration type duty. Would anyone know what type of pumps or other engine driven equiptment these could be used on?

*** Ken, this is not an ad!! I'm just trying to get some info!***
