Is the 3836848 on the head? That is a '56 and later 235 head. There is another cast number on the block.
Sadly some of the number lists on this site no longer work. Worse some of the other sites depended on this site for that information. It is likely out there .
Check for another cast number on the block, passenger side I think. The stamped number tell details of the use of that engine. I can tell if it was in a car or truck or if it was a factory replacement. It may tell what transmission was on it. That may be on the Hemmings site.
