Heres some more.... I am not sure I am a big fan of this Red HEI I think it looks a little tacky.... I am thinking about painting it.

I had the 250 already from the truck as it was the original motor to the vehicle. I am still a full time graduate DPT student with a limited budget as school is hitting me up for just over $30,000.00 per year in tuition. And I am trying to keep my build to right around the 5-6 grand total build cost. Once I buy paint It will be really close to that. The 292 is a stronger engine over all and would make more power. However, I will make plenty of power with the 250 and get a little better fuel economy.

Yup, looks better on mine!

Black, Blue, maybe the clear would give better contrast.
