Will fit the 92 also but there is a difference in the Valve Bridges. So you woud need to get the 92 valve Bridges. I have a complete 8V-71 that I am parting out so if there is anything else you need email!

nope, for a 71 series, other than the 2-71, and the two valve, they will work. If you have a 92 series, you'll need them to say 71-92A, otherwise you'll put a couple hundred bucks into a set of bridges for the 92. BTW, there are also Jakes available for the 2 valve 71's, but they are hard to find. At one time I knew how to change a standard 4 valve 71 Jake to 2 valve use. I haven't done it for years, and won't even try on my own 2 valve engine. | ||

Dallas,71 bridges won't work on a 92 series the valve spacing is wider on a 92 series you will need 92 bridges good luck | ||
