Will you be changing the transmission and/or rear-end? It's not the 235 engine that primarily limits the speed when you have a stock drive train.

Does "Mid engine mount" mean putting the engine where it was originally - under the cab?

The 216 and early 235 engines are not "splash oilers" -- this is a splash oiler.
