I may have the answer to my own question. It looks like from inliners.org that it is a 55-57 235 CI. Will I be able to swap out my 216 mounts, bellhousing and tranny to put it in my '51 3100? Is the water pump shaft length the only issue in putting the newer engines in place of the older? Can I replace the water pump and be ready to go?
