I'm replacing my 216 in a 1949 Suburban with a 235. I'd like to keep the 216 look by using the 216 rocker and pushrod covers on the 235. Will they fit?

Thanks,

This is supposed to be a common dressup trick. You will need the two long studs from the 216 and both sets of nuts.

Yes and No. The 216 pushrod cover will not work on a full pressure 235 engine. It is much shorter and doesn't go around the spark plugs. The valve cover can be used as described above.

I had to reread the question! I didn't even see the pushrod cover question, the first time around! Thanks Moneypit.
