Also stamped was CON 2. H233. Is this a 1963 engine?

Any clarification is appreciated. I did not ask the seller if the engine was original to the car when I purchased it.

Thanks.

Revisit your "LK" Suffix code on the engine serial number...could the "LK" really be "LR"? If so, it's a 1964 230 w/3-speed manual transmission.

H233 is the Cast date code...Aug 23, 1963 which would be about right for a Sept 9th build for a new 1964 model year application.
