Would a powerglide bolt in without modification? Anyone have a full pressure 235 that runs good? This one is knocking.... | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | Splash oiler. If it is a 235, the it is already a 'Glide engine (manuals had 216s), but it would not be the full pressure. Those came out in '53. The engine should bolt right up with no real issues.
