TJ's Chevy · 07-13-2014, 10:16 PM

Bump.

Got my pistons! Err...had them...just didn't update here..lol Don't ask how much they costed.... Anyhow...they're

Ross Racing Forged Aluminum Pistons

.040 over

18 cc dish...9.5.1 compression with 72.5 cc chamber

3 ring

Weight 551 grams. These things are of very fine quality..and will be easy 6000 rpm pistons...but I'm not going that crazy. lol! And...in about 2 weeks I'll be taking the head in to get the head work done!

**'68OrangeSunshine** · 07-22-2014, 11:57 PM

Hi Guys,
Bad news: my '68 292 is acting like a 5 banger. I posted a full account on the Engine and Driveline forum, so as not to hijack this thread, but since all the L6 heavy hitters are here, I thought I'd post this note here, too.

EDIT: My Buddy and I took off the valve cover to explore and found a broken spring on the # 4 exhaust valve. An an identical valve spring was gotten from the machinist and replaced. Truck runs good now.

Mike Baril at Ravenswood paint and body sells them. He's known as MrHotRod6...he is one of the guys who wrote the Inliner's Power Manual. Great guy...keep an eye out on ebay..that's where he sells them..type in "292 inline 6 sidecovers." and if he is selling any they'll pop up..his account name is MrHotRod6. Those covers can also be made for a 194-230-250

NEWFISHER · 09-15-2014, 01:01 PM

Not a fan of the 32/36. Just installed one on the 50 project and glad I kept the stock carb.
Clifford has a couple new ideas, check their site.
