This will yield some useful parts like gas pedal linkage, bell housing and then some

Default GM 270 ci from a GMC CCKW fitted in a C60S

These are photos of a GM 270 ci engine fitted in a C60S Wrecker. As one can see the radiator has been moved forward. This should work for a 235 ci engine as well.

Default 270 vs 235/216

The 270 is definitely longer and on the GMC CMP's the radiator dismounted farther forward. That is not necessary on the 235 if you adapt the early water pump to it.

Default Engine mount are different......

Easier to adjust the water pump on a 235/261 with no other modifications to be done to the actual CMP.....
