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.

I don't know about you Heikki. A 292 is a 50's Ford engine. Big Block V8. :lol:

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