CT 292 (6 Cylinder) Engine/Split exhaust manifolds/complete exhaust - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Patsfan34 · 12-09-2009, 07:19 PM

292 Engine, originally out of a 68 GMC (at least according to the VIN on the frame). This engine will need to be rebuilt. It DOES NOT run but is complete. I was going to rebuild the engine but the truck I bought to restore came with a 4bolt 350 with 59K original miles so I said forget rebuilding this 292. $250 or B/O. Pick up only!

Patsfan34 · 12-09-2009, 07:23 PM

The split manifold and exhaust is SOLD!

Word to Swantown!!!

N2GMTrux · 12-10-2009, 12:25 AM

I only wish you were closer to Texas. I would of bought that engine and had it in my garage by know.....

Just to put my self in line.... If you part out the engine! I would buy the motor mount stands and engine motor mounts with all hardware ( screws ) , all complete.

PLEASE P.M. Me if it gets parted out and in case I lose track of this post.
Thanks
S.C.

I am interested in the spark arrestor and plumbing if you part it. Just le me know if it gets to that point.
Thanks,
Mark

Patsfan34 · 12-10-2009, 09:44 AM

Ok, I'll keep you guys updated.

capev86 · 12-10-2009, 11:49 AM

that would be a torque monster with a good rebuild and the right parts. stacie david covered the good points of the 292 on his show Gearz awhile back. there exists an aftermarket exhaust manifold that fits a small 4 barrel carb. just think what some head work and a good (roller) rv style cam would do in your truck. there is a reason why the trailblazer went with a straight 6 over the v6 in the s10 series trucks......better low end power.

**ScottH** · 12-10-2009, 12:39 PM

Interested in the exhaust manifolds depending on shipping costs to 08753, and also balancer if u split up the motor (depending upon condition). BTW any PS parts on that engine?

Thanks.

That's the exact reason why I bought this chassis in the first place, besides the 4x4 drive train. I knew once rebuilt correctly the 292 would still have plenty of power and be much better on gas then the 4barrel 350 I will use now.

Sorry Scott but the manifolds are pick up only. Too much headache to get them boxed up and worry about shipping. I'm in Brookfield, CT 06804 so that's not as far as you'd think from Jersey. The engine didn't have any power steering or brackets when I bought the chassis.

**ScottH** · 12-10-2009, 03:55 PM

Understood, I know how much of a pain shipping can be. If I get up that way I'll let u know.

If u part please keep me in mind for the balancer.

Thanks

Scott

Scott, if you are anywhere near the CT border let me know and I can probably meet you. I drive to the shoreline everyday for work. Do you ever make it up to Westchester County, NY?

TwoFiftyShifter · 12-14-2009, 11:42 AM

Does the split manifold fit a 230/250?

I have no idea! If the head is the same then yes it should fit but I don't want to tell you the wrong info.

N2GMTrux · 12-14-2009, 02:45 PM

The non-integrated head on a 250 and 292 are the exact same head unit they are interchangeable. The blocks are the only difference in between the two. The A/C's mount the same location but require larger brace from lower mounting due to taller deck on block. Majority of the exterior items are interchangable. The exhaust are interchangeable.

The only items which are different are the internal rotating mechanical items, crank, rods, & the block.

Patsfan34 · 12-14-2009, 03:16 PM

Thanks for the info!

TwoFiftyShifter · 12-14-2009, 05:55 PM

Not sure if your saving these for the fella from NJ, but I am interested in them for my '64 GMC with a 230, I hope they will fit with the 3 on the column linkage.... I'm in the Newburgh NY area and travel to CT alot, my girlfriend lives in ridgefield.... Anyway we can meet for these?

They are all yours man. He wanted me to ship them and that's not an option. I said if he's in Westchester I might meet him, never heard back and I'm not holding onto them. Lets bring this to PMs so I can give you my info!

Patsfan34 · 12-18-2009, 07:45 PM

Everyone keeps telling me how rare this engine is and what a great price but no one is saying they want the whole thing. C'mon guys I'm giving this thing away. I know I'll make more by parting it out but I would really like to see it go complete

N2GMTrux · 12-18-2009, 09:25 PM

Just letting you know still interested in the the complete motor mount setup still. P.M. me if it gets to parting it out in cSe I lose track of this posting.
