Gary, I have a big block Eldo engine complete with transmission and final
drive. It is an early production engine that I salvaged from a wrecking
yard. The front timing cover and mounting plate for the motor mounts is
different than a cad passenger car. I just took that to mean that all
eldorados were similar. Must be a year model difference on mine. Sorry if I
added to the confusion instead of clarification.

David,
The only difference between the Eldo and the RWD motors
is the oil pan, oil pump pickup and the dipstick tube.
Oh yes, also the left exhaust manifold.

Does that mean other oil pans will not bolt on?

Jim,
I'll admit you've got me faked out. It's late and cold outside, so I don't
want to got out to the shop where my Parts Book is, but I think the
timing cover is all the same from '68 to '76. It did change on the '77 and
later motors. The '68 to '72 Eldo had a single front lower mount which
what is needed for GMC installation. In '73 they went to side mounts in
the front with a single center rear mount for the Eldo.
The '68 & '69 Eldo were 472s and had a different casting number on
the right rear of the block. And the '70 to '76 Eldo all had the same
block.
