What kind of motor mount do I need for Chevy 235?

What kind of motor mount do I need for Chevy 235?

If you have a 52 or 53 Chevy it will drop right in. Any of the Chevy engines 216, 235 or 261 work great with side mounts. I don’t know about dropping right in, the mount pattern on the block for the early 50s cars is different than on the late 50s cars.

How to change the engine on a Chevy 235?

Throttle linkage may need modifying if your block’s bellcrank mount hole is further back (toward firewall). Easy…some of the curve will need to be taken out of the accelerator rod. Squeeze it in a vise until it makes its travel without rubbing the floor pan (as installed in the bellcrank, without return spring).

What kind of transmission does a 62 235 have?

As you likely know, the ’62 235 six you have now (if it’s a passenger car application) was 3 point mounted with the side mounts on the block and the one under the transmission. The more rearward the block side mounts, the less weight on the tranny mount and strain on the case that concerns you.

Is the Chevy 235 engine the same as the 261?

1. The rear of every Chevy ‘6’ block (216, 235, or 261) is the same from 1937 through 1962, and the flywheel/crank-flange pattern is the same from ’41-’62! We obviously have wonderful interchangeability. Therefore, using pure Chevy parts, any engine from ’37-’62 can be installed into any chassis (car, truck, etc.) from ’37-’62!
