Perhaps I'm the last person in America to find this site, but it'll make you start drooling if you're a big Y-block fan...good stuff for FE's and other motors too.

Sometimes you have to stop and marvel at how much the internet has helped us to indulge in our hobby of choice...

 

I'm glad you found the site. It has been given out so often here that I am sure it is the number one website referred to on this forum. John Mummert is also a main advertiser in the "Y-block Magazine" that comes out everyother month.

 

Ahhh...I figured I was the last to know as usual

 

No you are not the last. That is why we keep putting it in posts, for those who dont know about it.

 

I wonder if it would be helpful to add a "sticky" at the top of the forum, listing parts sources. I realize it's advertising to an extent, but there are few enough places that carry or can order Y parts, especially performance pieces, that doing so might be an allowable exception.

Some I can think of:

John Mummert; Red's Headers (performance & replacement)

Kanter Auto Parts & Egge Machine (replacement/rebuild, notably 239 parts)

NAPA (replacement)

Red's, Mallory (Mr. Gasket), AT Francis (Blue Thunder), MSD, Isky, Pertronix, FelPro, Offenhauser (aftermarket vendors)

Chris Nielsen Cams (valvetrain pieces & custom cams; Chris has a few of the oddball 239 cam blanks, Lincoln "Y" cam blanks, & is knowledgeable in Y-block cam needs)

Rocker Arm Specialties (quality rebuilds of R.A. assemblies, aftermarket rockers)

Other contributions?

 

I got a 'marine' grind cam from CamCrafters in Maryland.

Distributors from Advanced Auto. Cheap, too.

Multi-keyway timing chain sets (by RollMaster) on ebay (or from Mummert).
