If it's really a 1963 engine, it's the newer style six (230-250-292), and won't bolt to the '53 transmission. A '62 full size Chevy six would be the last of the 235s and would bolt to your existing driveline, but would need either a shortened water pump or relocated radiator.

Awesome, I will run the #'s, But it came out of a well known 63, so I bet it wont work,,,Found a "good" "babbit pounder" if there is such a thing For 100$, But its a older one, like 47ish? Do the older sixes bolt up to the p.g.??
Thanks a ton!
