Description

The Ford Y-Block Engines How to Rebuild and Modify is a comprehensive guide to rebuilding and modifying the iconic V8 engine. First introduced in the 1950s, the Y-block engine was designed to provide better performance and reliability than its predecessor, the Flathead. With a range of displacements from 239 to 312 cubic inches, the Y-block engine powered a variety of Ford trucks and cars from 1952 to 1964. This book provides a step-by-step rebuild of two stock engines, complete with explanatory text and captions, as well as full-color photos. Author Charles Morris also profiles the building of a modified supercharged 292 engine, showcasing how to machine and prep the block, refurbish the cylinder heads, and select the optimal rotating assembly for a particular horsepower level. With this authoritative guide, you'll learn the unique features of the Y-block engine series and how to build a strong and reliable engine. The last book published on Y-Blocks was over 20 years ago, making this a long-awaited resource for enthusiasts and mechanics. With its detailed instructions and expert guidance, this book is an essential tool for anyone looking to rebuild or modify their Ford Y-block engine.
