Re: 235 intake/carb gasket question.
^^^^^ I'd have to believe that is the issue.
First, do you actually have a 235? That sounds a bit strange to ask but we have too many folks who assume that they have something when they have something else.
The rings for the intake ports on a 235 pressure oil engine won't fit in a 216 head and the 216 rings flop around in a 235 head.
Lets assume though that someone swapped in a 235 long block and used the 216 manifolds. I think I did that on my brother's 48 Chev 1 ton.
Looking at this speedway heat plate for when you swap to headers on one there are two visually different gaskets for that spot. https://www.speedwaymotors.com/GM-L6...iABEgJ3AfD_BwE
