its a windsor, clevleands were made from 1970-1974. Does it have a timing cover bolted on it or is the timing cover part of the block. Is the thermostat housing cast into the block?

y is what? Why are they entriely useless? Well are you running a c-6 transmission as they have 429-460 bolt pattern for the trans for one. Do I need to list all the difficulties of making these engines work, cause it will be atleast 3 paragraphs as to why they are useless. I can if ya want!

let it sit and rot or get like 30 bucks for it at the local scrap yard. The ONLY people using those are truck pullers. WHEN built they make good torque but for you, totally 100% useless
