Actually you are not far from me, I am in Poughkeepsie, but I found out some more about the engine. It is running and in a panel truck, with 170K miles on it, it has new heads and carb and he wants 600.00 for it. Even at that it was much more than I am willing to part with considering my 216 only has 27K miles on it and has leaky seals.
If I could find one for 350, I agree that would be best. Are the passenger car 235s the same, I have someone that has a 1957 235 they are looking to get rid of.
Thanks
