Where's the original Hudson straight six? What's the status of that?
That 292 idea of yours should work well. Don't know if you'll find very much info here on the actual specific swap you're looking at. I'm kinda thinking you're going to have to blaze your own trail there. But you should be able to get help with your 292 engine if you need it.

This place has motor mounts that look adaptible for this. Hear it is:
