anyone know their 292's?
My aunt and uncle currently have my grandfather's 57 T-Bird. The bird currently has a 292, and I'm told a 2bbl carb.
Could someone send me some links, or specs or general build up tips for the 292?
We have a 4bbl manifold, is the 4100 the 4bbl of choice?
I would like info on headers, electronic ignitions, pro's/cons, and ideas in general. Im not looking to build a monster, I just want to make it a little more fun to drive.
are parts for the McCullogh/Paxton superchargers still available and will they work with the 292 or is there something that makes them 312 specific?
Thanks in advance,
zak

Go to www.yblocksforever.com for info on Yblocks, of which your 292 is. As far a s the supercharger, they were not 312 specific and would fit any YBlock.
Pertronix makes a unit for your car. If your not rebuilding the engine and its pretty much stock, the stock exhaust manifolds work good.
The 57 4 bbl manifold had a "B" after the number and is a good one for a stock motor. As far as carbs go, anything from Holley, Edelbrock or the 4100 would be good.
