Re: Converting to a 292

As stated above, the 292 has a much longer stroke, which results in a deeper block, and the larger side covers. The balancer is much different.

The 194, 215 Pontiac, 230, and 250 are very similar except bore and stroke. The 292 shares some common parts and architecture, but is quite a bit different too.
