It has the same mounting on the head side of the housing as the 235 but the hose diameter to the radiator is differant and it has a bypass hose to go back to the pump. The water pump is exactly the same as a 235 water pump but with an extra heater hose outlet drilled and tapped right next to the normal one. They may be hard to find but you could modify a 235 water pump since the boss is there in the casting.
A school bus is a good place to look because most busses had an extra heater core in the rear with its own set of hoses. Another place would be a marine engine.
