Well, almost 6 weeks after swapping out the 327 for a Goodwrench 292 in my 76 chevy C10, I have to say "this was a dynamite swap"! Average mileage is 16mpg with the 3 speed manual and 3:08 rear gearing. Turns 3000rpms bat 65mph and takes so little gas pedal to hold this speed that passing is a smooth rush. Must have a good motor because it is smoother than the original 250 and much better than that V-thingy and almost equal to the torque at speed as the 327...Thanks for all the words of encouragement, will be sharing more later.
