Thanks for the lead. I think I have one coming from a Yblocks Forever member, but its not in my garage yet. I'll keep this number handy in case the other one falls through. 

There is a truck 292 for sale on Facebook marketplace in Nebraska. The mans name is Larry. He says he would consider shipping. His contact # 402-67 zero-2383

I am in need of a new engine for my '57 Tbird, but I am having trouble finding a usable block/engine. My T-bird had a 312 and so I am looking for another 312 if possible, but I realize they are rare so can a 292 if one is available. A bare/short/long block would work and used or rebuilt would be OK. I am located in Prescott AZ, but travel to Southern California monthly so can meet up in Northern Az or So Cal.
I am not sure of shipping costs, but that may also be an option if nothing is available locally.

Thanks for any leads
