I guess you could get it to "physically" work/attach by enlarging the mounting holes in the carburetor's base. The standard 216 carburetor will not allow your 235 to run optimally. Maybe someone else will discuss jetting and flow-volume? | | | | | Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 35 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 35 | any where sell a carb nos or anything like that fairly cheap? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 5,203 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 5,203 | Lots of sellers, fairly cheap, NO. Check e-bay for rebuildable cores or you local craigslist. Some of the venders sell core carbs as well as rebuilt ones.
