Al - with no disrespect intended, this question is like many "will it work" carburetor questions - insufficient information.
The Holley 1920 is a model of carburetor. The 1920 is a one-barrel; that is all we know. Different versions of the 1920 were used on everything from a Ford 144 CID to a Ford 300 CID six. These different models have significantly different internal venturi sizes, thus significantly different airflow.
As a general rule, when migrating an O.E. (original equipment) carburetor from 1 application to another, it is not wise to vary the displacement more than + - 3 percent. So if we take 3 percent of 235, we have 7 cubic inches. Therefore you could use a different O.E. carb from engine of displacements 228 ~ 242 CID.
