Thanks for the replies. looks like I will be on a major quest for parts once the weather breaks. It could take some time just to collect all of the proper parts before I can even start to do the installation. the more I think about this the more I want to have a strong running 292 in the ole stepside.
In the meanwhile I'll be finishing up a budget 350 build so I can maybe get some seat time in the old hauler this summer. Here is a link to that story on the Corvette site where I'm an administrator. As you will see I'm trying to not spend much but still end up with an engine that will be strong and something I can easily use elsewhere when the time comes to UPGRADE to an inliner. Input and comments are always appreciated and welcome.
Tom
