I have not had 6 later than 58 so I do not know if they are on later models. Standard carb for mom and pop 283 and 327 engines. I believe cars and trucks have the same choke and throttle linkage setups, you will need to adapt both for the 235. There are two kinds of heat chokes, one uses a tube from the exhaust manifold, the other has an little house with a bi-metal coil spring that sits on the manifold and connects to the choke lever. Rochesters did not have electric chokes.

Take a look at this link http://carbkitsource.com/carbs/tech/...Jet-index.html
