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.

Default Mexican 292

Hi all - i have been reliably informd from several sources that the Mexican 292 Chevorlet motor is the best Chevrolet engine every released. For what is it worth.
