It's called the "Shop Manual", thought you got one already?? They do make
carb specific manuals if you could find an old one on ebay or somewhere, but
for average person, it's all the info you need in the shop manual.  An
Assembly Manual with line drawings of all parts is nice too for most other
stuff, to see what/where goes where on truck. They'll only have the assembly
of the engine unit and controls in it and little in writing in it. It's a
Picture book! Maybe you have a later model 235, they were used up to 62, and
maybe out of a car. OR, just the carb changed? Not sure if later ones fit
old intakes size though. OW! Now my Brain hurts............see what you've
done! :-P
