HEI For 235

Just got a 56 Chevy truck w/a nice 235(Ofi, headers, dual Rochesters). Still has points dist. Looked in Summit and Jeggs for a HEI for this and no dice. Anyone know where I can get one?

Re: HEI For 235

Stovebolt.com has a tech tip for modifying a modern 6 cylinder HEI for a 235. Involves grinding the bottom collar at the block so it sits a little deeper, looks easy.

Re: HEI For 235

Thanks for the suggestions. I looked on the H.A.M.B. site and couldn't find it.
What's it named?
