Mark, not sure if I did it right or not but I sent the first email too questions@enginemasters.com and it came back as a failure, then I resent it too inquiries@automotive.com  and so far it has not come back.

Charlie, which email did you use to send your inquiries too?  If I'm wrong then I need to resend it.

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

I resent mine to questions@enginemasters and it looks as if it went thru.

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.
