What's your location? I have a few 292 and 312 blocks and misc. parts. Ebay is another good source for parts if shipping location is close.

I've not heard of a 292 cosmo. Maybe cosmo has something to do with the rebuilder.

 

Maybe he meant Ford moco. FoMoCo - short for Ford Motor Company.

 

i live in wisconsin. how much would a block cost?
thanks

 

A complete engine in a boneyard should run $100-250. Ive bought complete running but rotted out trucks for $100, several were 312 swaps.
