That is true. The only real 292 experience I have is with trucks. One was a '46 Chevy 7 yard dump truck I borrowed from a friend. He put a 292 in it after using another friend's truck with a truck built 292 to haul his backhoe over the Sierras for a job. He was really impressed with how it pulled.
I used the '46 to haul several loads of gravel up our steep 2 mile dirt road. It didn't even know it had a load. Most of the way I was in 2nd & 3rd gear never used compound low. It would comfortably do 50-55 on the highway. I didn't have an overdrive which would have been even better.
I had Crower going my cam buy the one TLOWE sells almost the same. I plan to use late '80s-early '90s TBI with either a mega squirt I built years ago or the control box from a 4.2 V6.
