250 & 292 in line sraight differances

I have 64 chevy PU . thought it was 250 . i had the head redone . put back together with 250 gaskets kit . runs very bad . blowback pressure very bad .
Now i know its a 292 i think also at origanal was a LPG engine.
Any one know if it needs differant gaskets on this set up ?

Check the parts books at your parts store. Ideally Napa or someplace old with stacks of old parts books. Computers only go back 20 years or so.

The head and related gaskets are the same for 250 and 292. The block, side cover, and crankshaft and rods are the only parts that don't interchange.
If you have a 292, the passenger side motor mount is not directly opposite the one on the driver's side and on a 250 it is.

Easy way to tell! Fuel pump behind mount on 292. Ahead on 250 and 230. You could have a 230 if it's factory stock.
