I put a 237 in mine also.  Simple swap from the 673.  Just changed waterpump and balancer.  I still run a triplex.  I have the big radiator and does fine with my 30k lbs.

 

Mine is the gas 331 I know the water pump neck is longer on the 237 but why dose the balancer have to be changed.  clearance issues?

Thank you very much and thank you for the pictures this truck is just going to be a driver not working so not worried about pulling
