Well, it did happen today. 327 on the floor and the 292 in the engine compartment. I took the 292 out of a 1976 P20 box van and assumed it would be an easy bolt in, just use the passenger side motor mount bracket and such....After an hour or two of trying to get everything lined up I discovered that I needed to use the driver's side 250 chevy block bracket and the stock 250 frame bracket. Left side received the P20's 292 block bracket and I also used the stock 250 frame bracket but had to re-drill the holes in the frame to make the fit. Was glad I dropped the engine/tranny in together because I ended up putting in the tranny cross frame brace to get the correct mounting locations for the engine mounts and plates. Finished up building the needed power steering bracket and decided to call it a night. Parts store tomorrow for the correct length of belts and other small stuff, then Monday it is off to the muffler shop for the short length of exhaust pipe to make the hook-up. Was easier putting the V thing in after the tired 250 came out than the 292 but in the long run, it will be rewarding....
