What kit has a good Ford Y-Block?

You guys are the best, and thanks for all of the info!

BEST one (IMHO)... AMT's '56 Vicky Y-Block. Good detail if a bit simplified, and a pretty good selection of period speed parts, to boot.

Has the Y-block in the new-ish Revell '57 Ford Custom 300 kit(s) trumped the AMT kit's Y-block?

Absolutely yes, IMHO.

Probably gonna kick a dead mule here, but did any of the kits with a 292/312 come with a manual transmission behind it?

Only one I could get to easily to check for sure is the Revell 2-in-one '57 Ford Custom, and it appears to be a 3-speed manual: two shift levers on the side.

I'd assume the other Revell '57 Fords are equipped similarly.

All of the Revell '57 Fords have a manual transmission, as do the AMT '56 and '57.  The only one I'm aware of with an automatic is the old Revell Ranchero (and the wagon it was converted from).
