He and Jon H (CarbKing) have for over a decade explained why and how a stock 235 will suffer from overcarburetion. For a stock 235 I suggest a stock intake manifold, a stock exhaust manifold and for the 1957 235 definitely a Carter YF3211S in good nick & adjustment. That Carter is a great improvement over the Rochester B or BC. As for a fuel pump, I have used an electric pump with great success since 1997...about the time fuel pumps in the USA stopped being produced. The pump I use is an AutoBest model F4027. It will output around 3 psi (which is just what you need) and my experience has been the pump lasts a long time. On Amazon currently you can buy one for less than $20 and it is made to handle ethanol-laced fuel. Good luck!
