Chevys great interchangability went out the window almost 20 years ago.86 and newer have 1 piece rear main seal which requires a totally different flexplate/flywheel with different crankshaft bolt pattern and balance than your 79 has. Your 79 torque converter may or may not fit a 92 flexplate. Also,some of the later fuel injected smallblock chevys have the intake manifold bolts angled differently in the heads than a 79,so your intake manifold may not bolt up.A 92 block may not have any provisions for a mechanical fuel pump. Expect lots of changes or go with a pre 86 engine.
