So it sat open without a hood for several years. Now since I’ve gotten it I bought a 50,000 mile 64 305C from a grain truck but noticed the front timing covers are different. My question is, can I pull the intake and timing cover from the 305E that is in the 66 and put it on the 305C From the grain truck so everything is the same configuration as it was originally? Thank you in advance for the help
Greetings dt!

I would follow Mr. Matkins advice. I will add that it's a doggone shame that the former owner(s) pulled the front cover off from the engine and then gave up on it. Those who have no mechanical inclination or aptitude should leave their cotton picking fingers off from things that they have no knowledge about and do not understand!!
