Thanks John for the quick reply.
Yes, I read that and many other threads and articles here and on other sites.
Either way I will have to tear them down,to a certain extent, to install the motor mount plate.
I would do a thorough inspection then.
Still probably won't know the corners cut.
I was wondering what the big advantage to the 261 was. (without the 848 head)
If it is a hp thing, from my research, it looks like the 1958 235 has 145 hp and the stock 261 has 150 hp.
Both far more than the 1948 235 @ 93 hp
