1964? or newer Chevy 6
 
Hi,
I went over to Andy Cussworth's house today and had a look at his Blitz.
It has in it a Chevy 6 that looks like an oversize Holden Red motor.
Totally different to a 216 which looks like an over size Holden Gray motor.
It has two small side plates and tappet cover like the red motor.
It is roughly 2 inches longer than a Red.
What size are they?
What did they come out in here in Australia?
Has anyone got a exhaust manifold for one?

Cheers
Jeff

292
 
Thanks Jeff & Co !

Thats the beast, i think its also called the mexican 292 and reported to be a good engine ?
It has Mexico and 1972 stamped on the manifold so guessing year of manufacture at a Mexico plant but any info or website lonks appreciated ?

And as per Jeff's earlier thread...... chasing a manifold to fit it, does not have to be stock, just do the job ?? Cheers
