Thanks for the thoughts. I am still thinking on this. The temporary 216 seems a little tired, but is still doing better than the 235 before it puked.
As for the parts truck, it has already lost some parts and it's questionable if it's worth saving. (I do have the thought of doing a hotrod if there's enough of it left and I can get enough $ set aside)
I know where I can get a '54 235, but I don't know the condition of it.
Decisions, decisions...
