Hi fellows!

I am "resurrecting" a 1936 Chevy standard coupe using the "KIS" approach. I don't pretend to do many upgrades, other using 12V and swapping the old 207 for a better Chevy engine (always a six).

I understand a 235 is a much better choice and am aware that its a simple swap into a 1950 Chevy (for example) but wil it also go easily into my 36?

Anyway, I would like to go still one step further and use a 250 (or 230) instead of a 235.

Any comments or suggestions? Could I keep the old transmission (if treated gently). If not, should I use a six/seventies "modern" 3 speed, clutch & rear end (prefer not if avoidable).



Any ideas most welcome!!!



Thanks,

Lars
