jwhite -- Welcome to Stovebolt.com! I haven't checked, but have you checked in at our Welcome Centre? If not, please do -- and give us all the details about your project. And please post it in the DITY Gallery!
Keep the questions coming -- we have a good crew here who are very experienced and knowledgeable (except for me -- I have to be constantly reminded how to hold the hammer I use to fix everything) and will be glad to help you all through your project.
As the guys said, 216s and 235s are fairly plentiful and relatively cheap (sometimes even free!), so unless it's important to keep that particular engine, don't spend a lot of money repairing it.
Thanks again!
John
