You can get a smaller flexplate (153 tooth)
Example:

Drill holes for the dowels.

What torque converter do you have?
What is the stall speed,won't need much for a 292.

I have a couple of the smaller ones around here. I guess I could try drilling those out - a little worried about this b/c I don't have a drill press that is big enough to fit the flexplate.

Does the smaller flexplate require a different starter?

The torq converter is just a stock stall. I was told 1200-1600 rpms.
