    Brie,
    Google/Bing 'ford y block' and you'll get a ton of links. This one FORD Y is on top for a reason. Sounds like maybe if you just pull the 292 and take it to a good engine shop to be cleaned out good and then built back right you'll have what you want. Personally I like Scot - Sehr Performance Machine Engine Rebuilding Specialists You might give them a call and chat a bit about what you've got and what you want, but I'll warn you that you might end up shipping your engine north if you do.....

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    I saved the Ford Y link in my favorites, the Sehr firm, as of this time does Chevy's only, when it comes to block prep.

    Scotty did my SBF 347 stroker from bare block. He'll do Chevy, Ford & Mopar, and he had a killer nailhead Buick in there last time I was in his shop. He's developed a special "Ultimate Block Prep" package for Chevy's. His note about "Ford & Mopar Coming Soon..." may be more of a website thing than a service thing. If you've got an interest give them a call. Great guys - Scot's the main guy, Kermit is his right hand man, and Tim (Scot's dad, I think) mans the phones most of the time and handles e-mails & computer stuff.
