Hey Don, I'm taking red to a shop today that can check the dist and see where im at. I had no idea that the dist from the 216 would not work right. I was pleased to find a late model 235 but I should have realized that just because the engine swap went well that did not mean I could take everything from the 216 and bolt it on a late model 235. Learning more every week and still loving the hobby. Thanks to all for the advice, I will let you all know how it goes Monday.
