What happened to the poor little 235?
What are you replacing it with?

BTW, since its not stock anymore, you might as well drop a 671 on top of the new SB.

Ok The first 235 that came with the truck poped a piston on the way home from buying it.
The second one I found in a bush 16 yrs ago. long story but I will tell it if you want. It lasted all summer. Died on the 10th bringing my quad home from a day at the quarry. Have not tore into it yet to see the problem. I built (not alone) a 350ci 4 bolt main 5 yrs ago. But I sold it to a friend. He was supose to put it in a 81 chev 1/2 ton. That never happened. I got it back for helping him put in floor boards for his mustang. which I would have helped do anyways. Don't really know what I got yet. 350 4 bolt main high volume oil pump double roller timing chain crane new fuel pump I was told the heads are 883's but I don't know what that means edelbrock performer intake, air breather, chrome valve covers. new cam all I know is its a highenergy. The heads were built to match. By the way I am a bodyman not a engine builder. I can put stuff together if somebody tells me what to put in I follow. the motor has yet to run in a truck.
