The 292 with 4 speed manual was not a speed demon but it pulled my 22’ camper up any grade here out west. Only reason I got rid of it was due to lack of AC. Bought it in Wi and AC was not needed there.
The hei from the 250 will fit amc 6's if you use the distributor gear off the amc.
No need to use a Chevy Dizzy,
The AMC used Dura Spark ignitions.
Simple to modify to HEI Module.

Sounds like a blast. Ours was gone when I started driving, but luckily for me my folks ponied up for the AMC Concord station wagon (upgrade from their Hornet, both with the I6). Can you say, chick magnet?
When i have a worn out cj or yj dizzy though,its an easy choice to just get a chevy hei style distributor and run the coil hot and tach to it. I've done it several times.no worries about a suitable heat sink for the module.but thank you for the diagram and option. I didn't know that
If it has six in a row, made from cast iron, you can't go wrong. I've had several Chevy 250s. They're not powerhouses, but they're reliable and hard to kill. Same with the Ford 300. Had one of those and no flies on it either. But the 4.0 in my LJ is my favorite so far. Bone stock with the 6 speed manual, it gets me where I want to go and I've got a gear for each cylinder.
