I have not bought an engine as of yet, the 63-292 was taken from a 2-ton truck, rebuilt and put into a combine which has since been scraped, but he saved the 292. Therefore I doubt if he has any of the mounts. Are the intake and exhaust manifolds along with the carb the same on the 292 as the 250's? If so I could run the original exhaust for a while. Also the PS from my 250 should also bolt up to the 292 with no problem right? I just bought this truck out of California and it has a 3 core radiator along with the fan shroud, so I'm thinking that should handle the 292 also. What color were the 292's painted from the factory?
