Its all about capacity of the frame, springs, axles and tire combinations as far as load capacity. It's about gearing for pulling capacity. The 292 is a proven puller with its torque rating. There are plenty better but it wasn't bad for it's time. I worked on a bunch of old Ford Y-block trucks and they were very reliable.
