So last Saturday I finished the 235 swap in my 41. Rest In Peace blown 216. Thanks to my buddy Norm for his help and use of his tools and shop, and my dad and thanks for all the forum help. Pretty quick turn around considering I'm balancing college too. Turned out well, engine runs really good. Here's some pics, blue engine is the blown 216, the dirty engine in the back of dad's truck is the 235 as I bought it, and then the rest is finished product.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
