Hi Bob: Tks for the lastest bumf on your re-build, I copied your article from MLU Up & have studied it closely. I hope to use the manifold mounted oil filter canister now that I have more info-it shud fit under hood of 13 Cab. I have had clutch rebuilt with original 216 flywheel to use with 216 starter, PATRICK'S says that it works fine on 12 volt. I was able to get an original rebuild kit for the CARTER W-I carb off the 216 as I didn't get a carb with this engine. I'll let you know if it works or not. I have bought a short-shaft water pump from PATRICK'S as the original is too long.
When you see this pump you'll find that it is just a rebuilt 235 or 261 pump with a cut down shaft & a pulley with a much smaller bell.. If we could find out where to buy these pulleys, we could save a lot of money on water pumps.
Pls keep in touch re ur engine & i'll do likewise.. No point in us both trying to re-invent the wheel!!!
Cheers, Bill Spence
