But FleetsideLarry, I've heard mixed reviews about the 292. Although much beefier, it lacks the top end RPM due to larger stroke. My 230 runs like a scalded dog once it gets up to speed on the highway with the 3:08's and I love it! at 70 MPH's (im guessing, cuz I havent re calibrated the speedo yet) its taching well but still, the lil booger has a lot more left! Plenty of power! All I want to do to the 230 is is lump port a stock head, slap it on and put a mild cam in it with some roller rockers and lifters, slap on the OD and go! Whaddya think?
