Hello,
Does anyone know the differences between the 235 engines concerning truck and passenger cars? I am in the process of shopping for a 235 or 261 for my 46 1 1/2 truck. Any info would be great, Thanks.

Beewrangler,

Check with Barry Weeks on this board. He has a pile of 235s and maybe a 261 at his place in Lake Elmo.

I think he said he had 8 235s when I was there last week.

He is top notch and will take good care of you.

235's like in your truck were splash oilers. 54-62 235s and all 261s were full pressure oilers. A full pressure 235 should slip right in your truck but you will need a short shaft water pump for clearance.

Where in MN are you from?

The full pressure truck motors all had solid lifters, some car motors will have hydraulic. I believe this applied to those that were coupled to a powerglide trans.
