292 Rubber Motor Mounts
I've been going thru the search section and can't find anything on this. I'm trying to get my ducks in a row before switching my 69 C-10 from a 250 to a 292. I have the correct pass side frame perch for the 292, the question is will the engine mounts and the rubber in between from the 250 all work on the 292? I havn't tried yet but someone must sell the rubber mounts new.

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
I don't think the rubber mounts are any different from the SBC's, but it was 12 years ago that I got my current L6 292 on the road again.

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
The mounts should fit with no issues. Chevy had the front mounts and changed to the side mounts. As a matter a fact I can buy a 2016 SBC motor and it fits today in my 1972.
Not that I did that.

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
The 250 , 292 and SBC use the same rubber engine mounts.
Thanks

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
Thanks guys for the reply's. Now my only question is are the metal mounts that bolt to the engine the same on the 250 & the 292? I know the pass side frame bracket is different and I have that, just curious about the engine brackets.

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
I got some made in the USA Anchor rubber mounts for my 292 from Rock Auto for less than 2 bucks each on close out. They still have some offerings for less than 3 bucks:

Thanks for all the help, I just placed an order with Rock Auto for the mounts plus a few other goodies.

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
Sorry - just saw that you were asking about the engine brackets. I'm not sure if those are different or not. Maybe ask in the engine forum...

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
The perch on passenger side I believe is unique to 292 applications. I tried unsuccessfully to find a rubber mount that would last in my 68 250 to 292 swap. I would caution the use of a 292 in anything other then a 3/4 or up truck that will be used for towing or heavy load use. It's a slow turning torque monster that flat sucks gas ! And I'm taking 10 mpg or less. I wish I just rebuilt the original 250, great little engine.

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
I bought a new 69 in the fall of 68 with the 250 and always wished it had a 292. My 250 needs rebuilding and I happen to run across this 292, I'm going to also swap out the 3 speed automatic for a 200-4R at the same time, hopefully this should make a nice combination. Thanks for all the help.

Re: 292 Rubber Motor Mounts
I like my 292. I just try not to spin it too high. The long stroke makes for some serious piston velocities at high rpm.
Torque peak is just off idle in the stock form.
