Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
There are some pics of my 292 on this page. I pulled it from my 70 C-10 and put it in my 63 Chevy II:

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
Oh man - I love the engine, the car, and the photography. That valve cover/air cleaner combo is sweet!

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
That dually is mental. The gnarly snow tires on the back are the crowning touch.

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
My 67 chevy c10 longbed says on the info that it use to have an inline 292 but when I bought it there was no engine. It had the original OD 3 on tree though. Now i have a 350/th350 but I am strongly considering about trading my rebuilt sbc350 for a 292. I can care less about power just want a good ol workin reliable 292. Plus gas prices suck and I heard these are nicer on gasoline. But i love the old sixes. You just don't see people running them like the old days.

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
Be aware - 292s are not that great on gas. Get a 250 and an OD trans if mileage is important to you.

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
I do not want to get out of topic here for such a cool post. But something I will have to think about. All in all I just love the straight Sixes. Thanks for the heads up Shaky.

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
Here is the 292 in my 67 c50. The original air cleaner was missing so I fabbed up an adapter for the carb and stuck the cone filter on it. Somehow the irony of it amuses me every time I look under the hood. Yes I know I need to filter the vent on the valve cover. This truck only gets started about once a month and never runs for more than 15 minutes. Baby steps...

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!

Your engine looks great. I'm in the middle of a similar built on a six. Where did you get the fuel line (pump to carb) from, and where is the distributor advance hard line from? What paint did you use on the exhaust manifold? What transmission are you using? Is there a Rochester Monojet on it? Pic of my engine just painted last weekend. thanks Mark |

I purchased all my hard lines from Inline Tube. The paint is a Por 15 product. Instructions for prep is that the manifold needs to be sand blasted first / No experience with it but will see how it holds up. I kept the Saginaw 3 speed. |

Re: Post Your Straight Six Pics!
Truthfully, I don't know what motors or years they came on. I found this one in a junkyard somewhere. And congratulations on having post number 292 in this thread!
