- I want to build a 235 so it looks like its a 216. Besides a 216 Valve Cover, what other things does a person do? Thanks! Deve Krehbiel Hesston, Kansas 1950 3100 * 1949 3600 * 1948 4400 www.speedprint

- Make sure it's a '53 PG, a '54 or 55 1st. A 261 in these years would be great, but tough to find. Consider the high cost of rebuilding, start with the block you really want. The wrong height fan in p

- I think that 216 with a short a side cover is really a dipper 235, used in big trucks and automagic cars. Also called a "high torque" something. Grant 50 Chevy 3100 52 GMC 150 oletrucks is devoted to

- That's a good point (of the hand crank capability), but that also reminds me that the 216's also had the wider v-belt (that would also require the harmonic balancer change). Regards, Doug Pewterbaugh
