Bought mine from another member after he'd had the engine stolen. Found one with low miles hiding under a shop teacher's desk. We had it on a stand looking over the rings and stuff. Fired it up, has been running like a champ--but we should have replaced the rear main seal!!! Tom at Stovebolt Engine Co sold me a distributor and carb. Easy swaps and the darn thing starts every time. Would have done a complete wiring harness and been done with it early, had I known what I know now. I used EZ wiring on another project and will do that again. 235 is a b**** to find bracketry and dual groove harmonic balancer for power steering conversion. The kits don't have everything, and I don't want a V-8.
