Well I picked up an engine yesterday. Seller says it’s a 235 I’m not positive yet thou I’ll take some pictures tomorrow and post them. I have to power wash it it is very heavily caked with grease, oil and dirt I did get the serial number by the distributor it is. Gea71700. After I clean it up I will pull the valve cover to get the head numbers and look for any other numbers on it. It was supposedly running when pulled and it had clean green coolant leaking from it when I loaded it up. I’m going to have my starter guy rewire the starter to 12v and get a whole new ignition system before I try starting it as the wires are not in very good condition at all. Any opinions on points vs hei ignition ? Was looking at the Jim carter hei setup but don’t know if it’s necessary.
