On a 216 the pushrod and lifter cover tin goes up to the tappet cover and on the 235 it ends at the top of the block.

Is that true for all 235 including the 1942ish splash lubricated ones used in US Army Chev 4x4 1-1/2 ton ? I thought those looked like 216, but could easily be wrong.

Hi All
Just went into the Master Parts Book Chevrolet, Maple Leaf and GMC Truck Parts Catalogue 1938-1951. Grant you are correct the early 216 and 235 share the same valve side cover along with many other parts. From the parts book it looks like the change in side cover came some time in 1950. Dave I also remember one site which had the statement about the side cover, but I think the differentiation they meant to make was between the early splash lubricated 235 and the the later pressure lube crank. So the full valve side cover vs the short cover is not a definitive identifier. As to the military 235 engine I just installed a NOS 235 head 1942 date on 216 engine http://canadianmilitarypattern.com/H...May%20Work.htm The casting numbers seem to be the best way of telling which is which. Here are a couple of good websites: http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/models/engine.htm http://clubs.hemmings.com/clubsites/...tory/cast.html http://aera.org/techtools.aspx I'm working on an update to my web page with a list of current good Stovebolt Six web information site Cheers Phil

Here's a nice one to test your Chevy engine ID skills: seller claims it is a 216. Engine sits in what remains of a 1949 Chevrolet truck, which is in the process of being dismantled.
PS: here's the link to the advert for the Dutchmen who are looking for a Chevrolet engine - http://link.marktplaats.nl/525635919 Someone please go save this and drop it in a CMP! H.

Definitely appears to be a low pressure engine so most likely is a 216.

Hi Hanno
Found the two pictures interesting note the size of the carburetor looks like it is a little smaller than the original. Cheers Phil
