I spent the last few days re-doing the mainfold and cooling system on the old 292 in my 62 F-250. I gutted the original Oil Bath Air Cleaner and installed a K&N filter in the original housing. I also installed a Pertronix ignition and new plug wires. Then, I replaced the old Autolite 4100 Carb with a 500 CFM Edelbrock (much easier to tune and it doesn't spew gas everywhere!!) Finally, I fabbed up some new steel fuel line to feed the new carb. After the mechanical stuff was complete, I cleaned it all up and added some fresh paint. It aint perfect but it'll do! Here's a before and after shot:
