I am not opposed to dropping the motor as low as it would go to make a 292 clear. I don't care to fab mounts, cross members or whatever it takes to get the taller motor in. Heck, motor plates would be cool!
I don't know the physical size differences between the two, nor the power/torque differences. I figured I'd get info like that with this thread.
