charlie - I can see some sweet modifications done to your y-block, would you care to tell us some details about it? Like where did the valve covers come from and your ignition upgrade and where you got the alternator brackets from.

[charliemccraney]

Alternator bracket and valve covers from John Mummert, http://www.ford-y-block.com. The valve covers do not come with the breather holes. I drilled those.

The distributor is a Duraspark distributor that fits a Y block. There's nothing particularly special about it. It's a fairly easy modification for a factory distributor but mine uses an actual Duraspark body. The whole ignition system came from Performance Distributors, distributor, box, coil, wires, and wire dividers. I made the brackets for the coil and wires. I don't think you can get the distributor from them. It was a unique situation but all of the other stuff is universal. http://performancedistributors.com/
