I'm not sure the one I refer to a lot is gonna help you. It's called "Reworking the Chevrolet and GMC Engines" by Frank ("Stroker") McGurk.

My copy seems to be from around 1953. Its listed price is 50 cents.

There's lotsa good stuff in there...like building the "Conservative Road Job", the "Hot Road Job" or the "Full Race Engine." There's even a section on running 5 Stromberg carbs. Not a lotta info on it, but a few pics of a 302 Jimmy with 5 97s on it on a dyno.

I hope someone can help ya with a more contemporary book. However, if you were to get David Vizard's book, "Rebuilding the Smallblock Chevy V8" (or something like that) you could transfer 90 percent of the info over to the 292. Great mtor, btw. I love mine:
