hello swaping out my 312 in the near future. trying to set up to get rid of my motor without scraping it (runs good). if you want it make an offer! i dont want/need it and would rather see someone use it than toss it. (631)793-1816 if you want to take a ride. dont want to ship so come pick up
You might try to post it on the y-blocks forever site, some real die hard y-blockers on there. Mark

BuBBa

57country:
Yea, share your pain re having a track near home. In the 60's when I had my first 57 and Mustang we had Lions, Pomona, Irwindale, San Fernando, Riverside Raceway, Poway all within driving distance. Now all are gone except Pomona (only open a couple of times a year), Irwindale (1/8th mile), and Fontana (open a couple of times a month). We used to be the envy of the Nation, now we envy the rest of the Nation. It's still great to take our rides out to the track, even if it is only once every one or two years. This year I understand that the NMRA is holding a race out West in July at Fontana. I'll be there with my 57 if its at all possible.

Hi I live here in Merrick, NY
I am finishing a restore on a 57 Fairlane 500.
I may be interetsed in your engine, have you determined if it is a 1956, you say it has a 4 bbl and from what I am told a 272 never came with a 4BBL in 56..
can you send any pictures.
I may be around this weekend and maybe I can come by to take a look. if you prefer you can email to my personal email acct
