For the 235 you'll need a bellhousing for a 54-59 235 or 261, hope that helps.

Bill Burmeister | | | | | Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 36 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 36 | the 54-59 bellhousing will have the fork on the drivers side and eliminate the hydraulic? I was kind of hoping to use it somehow | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 | Hy phnman23, Yes the 54-59 bellhousing will allow you to use the stock clutch linkage, in my mind it's not worth the hassle of installing a clutch master cylinder to use the hydraulic clutch. | | |
