The only way it might work would be to bore it out big enough to accept 3.75" by .125" wall-thickness sleeves, and turn the 235 into a wet-sleeve engine. We've done that on a few race engines, notably 2.3 liter Ford 4-cylinders with 307 Chevy V-8 pistons, but it's going to be a very short-life engine. Your best bet will be to find another 261 block somewhere. Jerry
