I`m on the fence about just cutting my losses with the 235 and find a SBC to put in there. Eventually I will sell the truck. Not sure what to do. I do know that I`ll get run over trying to pull out of my property onto the highway with the 235. Modern traffic does not want to wait on me. Looks like a rebuild is in order. I remember the previous owner said his wife wanted it out of her Bel aire because it lacked power. That was 30+ years ago and all the engine did was sit since then. It'll fire up if you just show it the key. Which I like, but lack of power in todays world. IDK. The price of a rebuild, if I can find someone that even wants to do it, might be close to cost of a SBC. Plus I have many new parts for those. What do you guys think? With a rebuild, will the 235 keep up with today?
