Hey thanks for all the comments, especially the question by question break down of how/what to do. In response to your question, it was just offered to me and I was just curious as to what could be done. For now I think I am going to try to get the 235 goin and drive it till next winter then possibly see if I could put a 350 in it, seeing as its one of the most common engines in the world.
Thanks again!
