Well, the 261 I thought i bought turned out to be a 235, or so i think. The block number is 3769716, which indicates a 58-62 235, yet on the pad where the captains bars would be for a 261, it has D261 cast into the block. I figured that meant it was a 261. Plus, i compared the rods to a picture i have and they appear to be 261. Is it a 235? Oh, It also has an "848" head that came with it, indicating its a 235. Are these "high" compression heads worth anything? THanks a lot.


1955 Chevrolet 210 2 door Sedan
a 30,000 mile UNMOLESTED original, now my daily driver! Original 6 cylinder with a rebuilt '66-'69 Saginaw 3-speed Overdrive. Synchro low! Otherwise, everything original down to the spare tire. Interior is like new. Needs paint, but absolutely zero rust.
