I've just finished a new chassis for my '37 Chev, and was worried about the 250 fitting the engine compartment, particularly after measuring the 250 in my Elco. Through the use of different parts, and modification to some parts, I found how to gain room, or in other words, how to shorten the overall lenght of a 250 to make it fit where a 216 was. The lenght of the one going into my '37 will end up approx. 1 5/8" shorter than the one in my Elco.

In my next post I'll try to share what I'm going to do.
