The main thing that people change on a 235 to make the uninformed believe they are 216's is the 2 center bolt valve cover and yes there is a kit to do that. Basically it is a couple of studs off the rocker arm to hold the cover in place. However...there are other differences too like the side cover that is a lot shorter on a 235 and doesn't surround the apark plugs. Still other minor differences. Those are the 2 biggies.

The changes have been discussed here a few times. Have you checked our archives/search feature?
