I am building something similar. I would attach pictures if I could figure out how. My truck is a '50 with a 292 utilizing a Kirby Sissell head with Hilborn injection but no nitrous. My engine dyno'd at about 468hp. The truck is running a Ford 9" with an aluminum Moser 3rd member and 35 spline axles. It is a nostalgia racer type truck so I'm using a Jerico 4 speed to keep it fun to drive. I thought it was going to make some passes this season but it just didn't happen. We should be ready for this spring and looking forward to it! | | | | | Joined: Aug 2004 Posts: 1,067 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2004 Posts: 1,067 | I would think a standard Muncie 4-speed would be adequate as well, considering they were found on the back of big block musclecars in the 60's and 70's. But a Jerico is definitely a cool transmission!
Tell me more about your 292. I'd like to know the specifications if you don't mind...Compression, pistons, aftermarket rods?, camshaft(especially the camshaft), your redline, etc.
I want to know because I think I'll replace my broken 235 with a 292 that's built to run. I've got spare turbochargers, and if I can find forged pistons, I might go with a little force induction.
Thanks.
