The 235 on my 58 had a wrist pin come out and catch the side of the cylinder. Total loss!! I located and bought a running 283 out of a 65 truck. I have started to install the 283 and have had to modify the bell housing. The next problem I foresee is the starter. The 283 has a modern starter and it looks as if I will have to install asimple starter circut/selenoid with a push button starter switch. I am not sure on the wiring and also I am using the generator from the 235 vice going to a altenato at this time. I will change later when I can use a complete wiring harness. Has anyone done this type of swap before and if so can you tell me the correct way to install the starter circut using the new seleniod? | | |
