what wheels you wanting to run?
70-81 camaro fit's decent if you don't want to run too deep of a wheel.
also, if you don't mind trimming all the brackets off, a 68-72 chevelle works too.
i'm running 8.5 centerlines on my 48 (same car for these purposes) but with a 59" 9" ford....

ITHINK the 216 bell will work with the 235 but there's some issues with the front of the engine (at least that's what somebody told me so take it for what it's worth)

mines had a sbc in it for 25 years....
now getting refitted with a 348 if i ever get back to it.
too many projects;)
