Has anyone experienced linkage problems when engines are swapped from 216 to 235. My 49, which I've recently discovered has a newer 235, both the gas pedal linkage and the clutch pedal scrape on the sheet metal of the floor.

Yes, I had to cut & weld the accelerator rod (the one from the pedal to the bell crank) to get mine to work right. I also had to bend it a bit to keep it from scraping the side of the hole through the floor. If yours has been in there a while with no problems, your cab mounts may need replacing.
