Brian,
I just gotta laugh.
I rebuilt my first 235 on my back, in the dirt, during the winter, in the dark with the engine still in the vehicle. And my girlfriend was wondering why I wasn't instead inside being warm an cozy with her? Anyway, that was in 1972.
That engine ran pretty good for about 6 months.
Just sayin' and I would not have traded one second of the experience for the world.
More power to ya.
Kurt
