Outworld Junior Member O Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 1 San Jose , Calif.	I have a '45 1 1/2 ton, that I plan to swap out the 216. I have been looking for a 235, am I better off looking for a 261? By the way, years ago I did a 216-235 swap. I cut the water pulley post shorter, and used a reversed Ford Falcon water pump pulley on the 235 water pump. Will that swap work on the 261? -Outworld
