I got back from Kansas city and was just going to rebuild the trans ,2nd gear syc. was not working,one thing lead to another and I ended up pulling the 216 because of a rear main seal leak,so I looked at the 55-pass-235 sitting there in the garage and rebuilt that new bearings,cam,valve job,etc,etc.

Today shes back on the road with the 235,and a new syc. drum in the trans alot more power,quiet,hdy lifters.


So her is the stats.
1-20 lb oil press.at an 650 rpm
2-40 lb at running 50mph
3- set timming at about 2 degrees btc at the ball I'm using the flywheel out of the 216 so it feels like it could use alittle more timing,advance what do You think?
