Chevy 292 Engine for sale - 06/05/15 12:36 PM
Chevy Inline 292ci engine. This engine was a warranty replacement crate engine from General Motors. My father ran a Pontiac/GMC dealership before the economic meltdown. The dealer had the service contract for the local UPS hub back in the 80s. A UPS truck had an engine replaced with this one that I'm selling. Upon start-up a strange noise was noticed and instead of trying to find out what was wrong it was removed and replaced with another crate engine. This motor was stored, in the crate, in the corner of the dealership until it closed in 2009 and that's when I got it.
I disassembled the motor to try and locate the source of the noise. I believe it was a faulty front damper but could not verify. Engine still has factory cylinder hatching and painted dots still on the rods. Perfect engine for the hot rod guy who wants something different.
For sale is Block, head, crank, rods and pistons. No camshaft is with this motor. If you're looking for a perfect core this is it. I'll even you throw in a complete gasket set. I do hae a flywheel and bellhousing for this motor if you're interested. Starter and alt as well for additional money. This is the Hecho in Mexico block. Late 80s casting.
I found a source for flat-top standard bore cast pistons on eBay. I have never seen a core in such good shape. Crank bearing look perfect as to rod bearings. I had planned on building this for my 62 Nova with the flat tops I spoke about. New rings and bearings and you've got a solid short block. I've since been given a BB396 from a 69 Chevelle SS that I'm going to use so I need the room in my shop. Great core.
I have the ability to ship via LTL to your buisness or loading dock. Make me an offer. If you'd like pictures of anything in particular please let me know and I'll do my best to provide what you're looking for. You can email me at freeflynstl@sbcglobal.net for more info. Leave your number and I will call. I'm Andy and I live in the St. Louis, MO metro area.
