rams horns

Aren't the rams horns exhaust manifolds that fit our '54-'56 Yblocks the ones that the bolt holes are [/B]not[B] in a straight line? Right? The ones in a straight line are the ones that are from the big Lincoln Y-blocks found in the '54-?? big truck engines, F700 and up, right?

There is a set of rams horns on ebay right now for $400 with 3 days left and they look like the bolt holes all in a straight line.

Correct me if I am wrong, please. And may the buyer beware!

Abe, the Lincoln ones are angled on the end ports. The ones we use are all in a straight line. Dennis in PA

Thank-you, I stand corrected! So they are the right ones, but WOW!

Dennis, how's that 55 Y-block Running?

Abe, it's doing pretty good. I made it to the quarterfinals at Columbus last labor day. Thankfully Kevin had to go home before the races started. Still not using all 3 carbs yet. Dennis in PA

Dennis,

NO MERCY THIS YEAR! I'm going to get that thing to the track as much as I can this year befor columbus. I think the dual quads are comming off and a single 4 is going on.
When is Carlisle this year? I would like to make it there.

Kevin, Carlisle is June 1,2,3 with racing friday afternoon. We're working on something at Beaver Springs raceway the weekend of July 14-15. The guy there would like to get some y block event started. Dennis in PAPS I think practice helped me alot last year. My worst reaction was .179

Dennis, keep me informed of the event at Beaver Springs. That is not to far from here, don;t think I would race but it would be a nice drive with the truck to see other Y-blockers.
