If the dizzy is 1/2 way down the engine its more like a 235. The 292 has the dizzy up the front of the block. On a 235 the side cover plate doesn't extend up the head like a 216.

Thanks guys,
dizzy is front left as you look at the engine, it is just above and back from oil filter, sideplate wise there appears to be 2, I think a light blue colour and I can see grey on the engine but i dont know if colours help establish what it is further than this ? is there other feature or numbers i can check to assist in recognition ? Cheers |

Sound like keith is right! 292 has 2 side plates and the dizzy above the oil filter. I recon the water pump would be close to the radiator and a thermo fan fitted.

yes Euan, the water pump is close though there is a normal fan fitted too.... its literally an inch from the radiator ! I think they may have 'massaged' the surround and it has a couple of homemade lower radiator brackets that makes the Radiator slanted slightly and bulge out touching the grille.
So what is the actual model of engine so i know for sourcing service items, is it a Blue Flame, 216 or 235 ? Cheers, Andy |

Hi Euan, The C60 custom delux I owned had a 292 with monojet carby in it and with 9 ton of apples on the deck it could suck up a massive amount of petrol.
