I am not an expert on 292 but the block bellhousing pattern should be the same as a v8. Not sure on the 270. Car bellhousing with a 4 11/16 inch hole and a truck bellhousing with a 5 1/8 hole. This may be more flexible for future trans changes. I do not know about the 292 motor mount location. If it is the same as the 42 or not. And this probably would require for clutch/brake pedal mods.
