Inliners International Forums General Discussion Engines Swap 250 for 235

In 1994 as a teen I purchased my very first vehicle. It was my 52 chev truck. from that point my interest in the older 235-261 inline grew. Found out when taking it apart it had a 55 235 in it and that was the main driving force to stick with that engine and have it rebuilt. All my interest is with the 235-261 blocks. Was thinking a while back about switching to the 230-250 style because it so easy and cost effect to find parts, but now that i have 4 spare 261 blocks and 4 848 heads im good to go for my lifetime.
