New update on my 216: We pulled the engine and the oil pickup tube is cracked, one of the soft plugs is corroded out and the block is full of debris to the head, crank is scored and machine shop said that they didn't think the block is useable. I am going to take it to them on Tues to verify condition.
Also the transmission is junk and the rear end needs to be completely rebuilt.
A friend says he has a 235 w/bell housing and clutch (it needs to be rebuilt) available.
What is involved to convert to the 235? Is there a reference for the conversion?
What about transmission, drive line and rear end conversions?
