    RB35- I used 3/16 plate

    Big thanks to Tim (mctim64) for the y-block help! It's running great!

    Finally took some finished shots of the pickup. Hope you guys enjoy.

    What a great looking truck. A very clean, not over done hot rod. Just right!

    It's beautiful! What are you running for carburetion? Once I had a 56 Ranch Wagon w/292. A friend lent me a tri-power set up for a while: MAN did it wake up that engine compared to the stock 'tea-pot' 4 barrel.

    Thanks guys!!! Glad to hear from all of you y-block fans too!

    blgitn- its a Holley 2-barrel. I just put the pickup on ebay, but if it doesn't sell, I have a 3x2 Edelbrock intake that I'm thinking about installing.

    Here are a few detailed pics
