On a somewhat related subject, the Melling M-29 oil pump that's used on the 54 and early 55 235 full pressure engines can be adapted to a 216 engine with a little creative plumbing of the inlet and outlet tubing. That pump produces more volume than the earlier pumps, and it can help with the "low or no oil pressure when hot" problems that 216's with a lot of miles on them can have. Jerry
