One of our local members runs a 292 with 3 Webbers in his daily driver.
292-1 292=2 A problem that may occur is steering and pan clearance. I know people like the newer, smaller front clips but the Stude unit works very well. We converted my son's to air bags, but all parts are Studebaker. The other clearance issue may be the rear carb if you have power steering. We went to no power on Jake's to clear the cast Avanti Headers. It actually steered better. The PS unit they used was the same as on some much heaver GM cars and it tended to over steer on the Stude. Another thing to consider when working with Studebaker frames is that they are thin and not very rigid. We were surprised at how wimpy the '54 frame was when we were sand blasting it. It seemed to be an early unibody design. By the time all was back thgether it was fine. A model T is stiff in comparison! :o. You could always go to a dry sump and lay the 292 down for clearance.
I'll Try to get some measurements from the '54 wagon for you if it will fit in the short frame it will fit the coupe. Tom
