Greetings from Colorado Heikki!

I assume that you would need to have this engine shipped to Finland?

How complete do you need the engine? Complete with all accessories, ie: manifolds. carb, generator, starter, etc.. OR , just a good running, solid, long block? Will you be using your existing transmission?

Just picked up a 1926 Chevrolet engine for a friend yesterday. Sat for years but do-able...

Check out the H.A.M.B. board at http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/ here in the states.

Well hello George.

Ohh yes I would prefer to get it here.. :lol: :lol: My wish is always to get the best available but.. at least a nicely running complete engine. The tranny in the truck is good. So yes I would prefer to use the existing tranny.

Our best to you George.

Just bein a kid in diapers in the Mid 50,s so I reckon I wasnt interested in engines.. but my dad said the 1st thing that I asked when born was, Dad where,s the girls? :lol: :lol: :lol: been in trouble with gals ever since.

Gee with a V8 I,ll be driving only on paydays or Birthday or Anniversary.
Especially at 8 somthing USD per gallon.. :lol: :lol: may even have a chance to drive it but also only just start it up to kick the dust out.. :lol: :lol:

Ok is this somthing else?

I think the 292 was a trunk engine in the 1970's based on the Chevy 250 L6 cylinder engine.
