Gerry-
I have a 235 ('59 model) in my '50 3600. It replaced the original 216. I
don't have the specs handy, but someone will certainly have that, and I'll
make a note of it when they send it. I believe I got the info from the auto
parts store where I got my tune up supplies. At any rate, I love mine. I
run big 16 inch tires, and she purrs like a kitten at 50-55. I can go 60+,
but I get a little uncomfortable at that speed. And if I was in a hurry,
I'd drive my wife's van anyway.
Good luck with the 235. It's a great engine, and really easy to work on.
