Not exactly a direct replacement because of the different positioned right side motor mount and the deeper 292 oil pan clearance issues with the 4x4 cross member under the engine. I fabricated a cross member and mount but with the stock 292 4x4 cross member it would be a bolt in...
I used the stock 250 water pump without the 292 bypass hose. Had to drill a hole in the block to match the extra water port on the 250 pump..
