That was when i junked it and bought the '73 Chevy step van. It had
a 292 and a five speed on the floor.
The 292 was a great egine - lots of torque.
Just knew the 283 was "yesterday's news" by 1968

Only "yesterday's news" because GM kept increasing the bore until they
would only last as long as the rest of the car.
