V-8 bell housing from a '55 to '67 (I think) Chevy pickup. I'm not sure what clutch issues you might encounter, except to not some of those years Chevy used a hydraulic clutch.

The bell housing used on sixes starting in '63 and through the same year ('67?) will also work with the same clutch caveat.

The crossmember has those angled mounts starting in '54 and does make this swap easier.

If your 292 had an automatic,don't forget to install a pilot bushing into the end of the crankshaft. Don

You will need to drill the mounting holes in the manual trans. flywheel out to 1/2 in. & get new bolts. The 292 used larger bolts then the others.
