Hi guys. have myself a couple of 292 I-6 GM engines. one in a 1981 C20 truck with a grain bed body and another in a 1974 John Deere combine.
Came here looking for info on the "industrial" engine that would be used in my John Deere 4400 combine. Single barrel carb, the advertised power is 95 Hp (lower than most automotive applications for the 292, assuming it was built for low-end torque rather than higher RPM power, which is good). What all is different ? cam ? I believe the industrial also used a different crank flange because instead of an automotive clutch it accepted a bearing box/shaft to drive all the power shafts, belts, pumps etc on the combine. If anyone can direct me to more info on the INDUSTRIAL versions (like where to get a reman), that would be great.
