It looks like the 235 water outlet is about 1/4" wider on the bolt spacing than a smallblock V-8. You might need to check out Furd or Chrysler engines to see if something will match up.
A good starting point would be a master gasket catalog at a good parts store, and see if the 235 thermostat housing gasket fits any other applications. If the gasket fits, the gooseneck should bolt on, too.

I will post what I end up with. Maybe I can find one of those swivel necks that will come apart and can then make my own mounting plate. | | |
