And if not what has to be done to make it fit? Will the 1930 Chevy transmission and clutch bolt up to the 1956 Chevy 235? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 5,337 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 5,337 | Almost nothing can be used from the 1930 207.
I put a 1954 235 in a 1929 a few years back and here is what I used.
*1937-39 truck 3 speed. *1938-46 truck bellhousing. *1938-53 flywheel and clutch. *1936-46 big truck clutch/brake pivot mount. *modified 19 tooth speedo driven gear.
Your 1956 engine will have the longer lower water pump so that will need attention. I would recommend my water pump adapter for this problem.

Does the torque tube bolt right up to the trans without modification? Did you use side engine mounts or is there a way to modify the 235 for front mount? Thanks, -dave
