Racing a '67 Suburban with a 292! Now that takes optimism! LOL. I had a '67 K/10 Sub w/454 and I thought it was underpowered. The harmonic balancer on my last mill [1977 - 2002 RIP (sniff)] went bad after only 250,000, miles. It went off-kilter and cut into the timing gear cover. Over-revving (_>5,000 rpm) can cause this prematurely, I'm told. So can extreme age. You can't beat the price. If nobody wants 'em, I could find a use for the 292 engine mount "stands" -- I already have the "knees". I'm thinking of putting a 292 L6 and SM 465 in a '72 Blazer body that was set up for 350/350. Just a future project. Mainly I need to get my '68 stepside back on the road. PM me if you have any parts to deal.
