Might want to be careful here....I recall that the 63 Impala was the 
first full size Chevy to have the "new" 230 engine. The 230 is 
completely different from the 235, it will not bolt into an oletruck 
without some changes for mounts, bellhousing, etc.

If the engine in question has more than 4 bolts holding on the valve 
cover on top, then it's not a 235!
