I have the 52 timing chain cover for your swap. The engine is attached at the front via the timing chain cover and at the rear via the transmission. There are no other attachment points. Attach the rear of the engine to the transmission. Transmission holds the engine in place at the rear.
Message me for the timing chain cover.

Great story, Glad to see you are starting to get onto the repair. It looks like you have a nice truck too. Looking at your replacement motor I see a small tag on the freeze plug in the back of the head, that's a good indication the engine was overhauled at a rebuild facility at some time. Keep us posted.

rdemilt,
That's a nice detail you caught on the engine pic! I never would've known. It's nice to know it should be in good shape inside.
Anyone have thoughts about the right clutch kit to get?
Lever or diaphragm?
And for the original 215 or for the 223 truck/car?
