i was wondering if this is a good enigne to keep int the truck i do want rebuild but i also have a 351m i could put in it . i have heard that the 292 is a very fun engine. im thinking about boring it out a little putting a heavy cam and changing to a four barrel intake. i want a truck that will trow you back in your seat but dont care about top speed. are parts readily available for a 292?

 

articyblock will have the most info for you since he loves that engine series. Parts are available but not as cheap as later engines.

To name a few sites for parts you may need. You can find all sorts of stuff googling it.

 

JMA, Welcome to FTE the nations #1 tech support truck stop

The 292 hasn't been installed since 64, the M since early 80s. There are a lot of options out there. Good luck on choosing the right one.
