Misalignment between the two can have catastrophic results to the "fluid coupling" and transmission. The engine/transmission sets had matched serial number data plates to help keep them together as a set.
If you intend to run the Hydra-Matic with the car 235, it will need to be checked for runout as Jerry indicated, and adjusted if runout exceeds alignment tolerances. It can certainly be done and there are possibly some folks still active that can help with the 'how-to" or point you to someone that can do it for you.
