The only way I can see where measuring would work would be to measure the bore= 3.80 and stroke= 3.44 for a 312. The 292 would be 3.75 bore and 3.30 for the stroke. You would need to remove the heads in order to check bore and stroke. Isn't B= 272 and A = I6 223???? 1957 ________________ Ford \___((_______________))___/ (@)________V__________(@) [________I_____I_________] __[__]__ o_______o___[__]___ Y Blocks, The New Flathead!
