I second the recommendation for Remflex manifold gaskets. I've used them twice now on 235s, both with excellent results on manifolds that had pretty bad misalignment between the intake and exhaust surfaces. About $50 for a Remflex got me going again without the time and expense of having the manifolds machined.
