292 Engine Assembly and Installation is a Family Affair (Timelapse) EP.21

[@josephstory4417]

That 292 sounds awesome.

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

Thank you!

[@Chechenzko]

This Inline 6 is one of the coolest powerplants I've seen for a 6 cyl.... 292s are lovable all the way!!! Even in the derelict form ... Very nice job!!!

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

And you know what? I really enjoyed this project.

[@Chechenzko]

I can tell, you made it neatly, there’s so much love put on it! You got a new fan here!

[@Chechenzko]

@@SquaredAwayGarage did you sell the truck?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

@@Chechenzko no. I still have. Looking for something to buy?

[@Chechenzko]

@@SquaredAwayGarage soon enough, I will be able to start a project like yours... but I was curious about your jewel. If you was to place it in the market, what would be the price for it?

[@alexpena6948]

Amazing and a beautiful motor

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

Thank you!

[@michaelmanzo1716]

Glad you got your truck back.

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

I'm glad also. It's running very well.

[@michaelmanzo1716]

@@SquaredAwayGarage I bet, have you noticed any difference between the two cams?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

@Michael Manzo honestly, very little difference. Sound is very slightly different, but I can feel it chopping a little when I'm sitting in it at idle. Once you take off though, it's the same.

[@michaelmanzo1716]

@@SquaredAwayGarage nice, cam specs looked darn close. I went with the howards hy-tork cam, as my 292 is going in a low geared 4wd work truck. Will probably spend most of it life under load of firewood and tongue weight and below 3500 rpms.

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

@@michaelmanzo1716 I bought the same cam for a 250 I building.

[@izaacmireles9311]

How does all of that work? With the fuel injection and the wiring?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

I assume you're asking if it is easy. Most of the parts required are custom. Which means you can't buy a wiring harness for a fuel injection system and just drop it on your inline. You'll need to build it from a universal harness and it will take some time and effort.

[@roballan4944]

What intake are you running? And do you sell it with spacer blocks? With or without injectors and rail?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

I run a Clifford intake on my 292 and an Aussiespeed on my 250. I don't sell intakes with the spacers attached though.

[@monkeywrenchization]

What kind of fuel system & ignition system was used on this installation? Back in the day, I had a 78 GMC that I put a 292 in. I ran a Holley 2 bbl.

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

This engine is fuel injected (run by a Holley Dominator). Fuel system includes an 87 oe baffled tank and pump with an Aeromotive fuel regulator. 42 lb LS3 injectors.

[@monkeywrenchization]

@@SquaredAwayGarage I'm not too familiar with a Holley system, but I have done some things with the GM Gen III engines. Where is the relucter wheel for the crank and cam?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

@@monkeywrenchization I modified a Holley (MSD) dual sync distributor to work in the 292.

[@mitchsavoie3540]

What valve cover is that?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

Custom piece.

[@troyo4121]

Hi it's Troy. I would like to purchase a set of your intake blocks for the fuel injection .

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

I responded to your other post.

[@troyo4121]

@SquaredAwayGarage I woukd still like to purchase a set , for the carburetor intake . Can we move forward what information do you need ?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

@troyo4121 what is your email address?

[@moregrip4185]

How does she drive now?

[@SquaredAwayGarage]

Pretty nice! Some tweaking to do still.
