Good deal Martin. I'll keep it here for now.
Jerry, best I can tell the intake manifold is integral to the head. I'll attach some closeups. The exhaust manifold looks like a cast dual with an EGR. Factory perhaps? I'm not experienced with these 230/250's so this is new territory and I usually enjoy new territory. I'm going to try and start it up before I tear into anything. Previous owner said it ran great until he bottomed out on a railroad track and noticed anti freeze under it. Said he hasn't run it in a yr and ofcourse the battery is deader than dead.
Another thing, he said it had an electric fan which burnt out and included a brand new in the box electric fan to be re installed. If I'm not mistaken a 230/250 isn't any longer than the 228 that was probably in it. There seems to be enough room to bolt a stock fan back in, I even have the fan on my rebuilt 235 I could try, I may try it.
Theres alot of hillbilly engineering I'm going to have to sort out, but I got the time. Dang thing sit's so low I'm wondering if I can even get a jack under it.....
