If you can get the "dress numbers" off the machined pad just behind the distributor hole, you can run the numbers online and find out the displacement if it's a 230 or a 250. 292s are more obvious to the educated eye: Asymmetrical motor mounts (pass side mount and fuel pump are in the opposite places), Taller deck, Taller --6" lifter panel covers on the 292, 4" on the 250, Extra hoses coming out of the water pump.

Every 25 years I like to rebuild that 292, whether it needs it or not.
