OK, I know this has probably been answered by someone for someone else at one time in the past, but...

I've got a line on a '54 235 engine, complete, out of a one-ton Chevy, from air cleaner to oil pan, fan to flywheel. It also includes the clutch assembly and bellhousing. NO tranny. This is out of a one-ton that had a four-speed.

Will this whole assembly fit my son's '46 1/2-ton without a lot of drama??? What needs to stay? What needs to go? What needs to be modified to fit?

Patrick, Check the tech tips at the top of the page. I believe it's covered there in pretty good detail. Also, check out Bowtie Bits website. They have an article out there that I believe explains exactly what you're looking for.

I guess you must have decided to keep it?

Good Luck with the project.

Patrick - Keep the bellhousing and trans from the 46 and the whole thing will slide right in and bolt right up. You might have to go to a short shaft water pump, but that's it.

Have fun
George

54 was the last year for the short water pump (except 55 first series) so this motor is the one you want. I'm running one in my 53 flatbed.

Cool, guys, that's what I need to know. This is a low-mileage rebuild that is absolutely complete, and a day's drive round-trip. The more I fart around on this truck, the more I want to keep it, so I'm leaning towards hanging on to it for me and giving my '71 Dodge D-100 to my son to drive.
