59PTruck: The 292 is worth the bother to fabricate the staggered mounts for.It will give you that 6 cylinder reliability,economy,ease of service and engine compartment room with nice low to mid range torque.They need a little more in the breathing and exhaust departments,and an HEI would be a wise idea.I am setting up the same drivetrain in a 1940 1.5 ton for a fellow Stovebolter
