What material is the distributor gear made of to work on your old inline 6 . Did you remove and reuse the distributor gear from your old drive gear? Randy Kaneer

A friend of mine has a 71 Chevy with a stock 292 industrial motor with a a turbo on it and a 400 turbo trans. Ran 14.50 1/4mile times with it on street tires. He just put a bigger turbo and carb on it and has not run it after that upgrade. Pretty cool way to do things different than the crowd.

The owner of the turbo 292 wanted to know how far he could push that motor and he found out. 30lb of boost and maybe a little lean. Rebuilding with better pistons and cam and lowering when the waste gate opens. Dave

Love 292's.

Mine was all stock, except for a shaved head when it was found to be warped when I had the valves done, which gave it a little more compression, and I put on a straight-thru muffler. Also kept it well tuned. Had a lot of power and sounded sweet too. It also got surprisingly good gas mileage. This was in my '64 C-30.
