I pulled it from my '56 Fairlane to put in a 312. It was a factory 4 barrel car and I just assumed it was a 292. I've had numerous flatheads in my life and I like them but I plan on using this old truck like a truck and maybe pulling a trailer and the flathead that came out of it was worn slam out so I'll gain a little HP with the Y-block. (and I'm not doing anything that can't be undone if a flathead needs to go back in)
