The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop 1954 Chevy 235

Thanks for the input.
The 1962 235 I bought came out of a 1954 Chevy truck. The motor has starter, gen, water pump, distributor, fuel pump all attached and in good condition.
I measured the overall length of this motor and the 216 now in my 42 3/4 ton truck. Both engines are the same overall length (including water pump). There is a physical difference in the two water pumps. The WP on the 216 has an intake tube that is angled down slightly and the heater hose fitting comes straight out on the right side. The 235 engine has a WP inlet tube that is straight out the right side of the pump, while the heater hose fitting is angled slightly upward. Aside from these differences, there does not appear to be any significant difference in WP configuration.
