Quite possibly tclederman, what I see as an 8 might be a 3. I'll scrape around and look closer. It's really hard to poke my head in there to read it well. As for the head, I took it to the local auto parts store for a rebuild in 1967 and they returned a head from a 235 to me. I was SO MAD but my original core was gone, gone, gone by then and a teenager had zero clout in a machine shop in those days. They basically told me 'tough luck kid', we have your money now go away.
Thank you for your knowledge and help!
