If I was to swap my 261 which would fit without much change or fit the space the best? A 250 or a 292? which is the best to find parts? Thanks

If you actually have a 261 rather than a 216 I think your best bet would be to stay with it.

I'm not sure the differences between the 250 and 292 from a parts or space standpoint would matter much. I think the 250 would be easier to mount because the commonly available V-8 mounts would work. The 292 because of its staggered mounts would be more of a challenge to mount.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...
