Your correct Dave I have it backwards. Thanks for setting me straight.
So if I tried to put flat pistons in the 39 block with a 42 head would I be asking for trouble?
Thanks for the information Carl. I have a line on 3 235 cores. One is a 56 that is a good engine block # 3837004. Sitting at engine shop half built.
The other two block #'s 3769716 & 3738307 (1960 & 62) are unknown condition cores under cover.
What modifications would be required on these engines?
Thanks for your help, John
