For that numerological reason, the L6 Community calls a 292 [RPO L25] Block bored out to .060-over, a ''301,'' not a 300.
[A 292 at .030-over is 296 CuIn.]
The Ford L6 300 is a reverse-engineered 292 copy. [Or is it I-6 in Fordish? IDK. Don't speak it.]
They came out with it in 1965. The L25 292 came out in 1963. Enough time to buy one, take it apart, and copy it. The 300 Ford has its Carb, intake and exhaust on the Passenger side, and the distributor on the driver side. Pure ''reverse'' engineering.

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