The one from the Belair will not work. My ‘52 with a ‘59 235 from a car came with one and it tended to stick. I got the proper linkage and bell crank for a ‘52 216, moved the bell crank pivot pin to the rear position (which was provided on the ‘59), and now it works like it should. 1960 and later engines did away with the second position. “Pre ‘68 Dave” shows how to add the rear position on his website.
