79 to 80 300 differences?
My 300 in my 1980 is starting to knock and tick. I'm looking at 79 300 from an F150. Any compatibility issues I should be aware of? From the searching I've done it appears the 79 and 80 300's are the same?

Not an oily mess like the motor was in my project. I replaced the valve cover, side cover & oil pan gaskets, hope that fixes mine.
I can see that motor has the thin plate used between motor & bell housing man can I use that (hint hint
)
Also did that motor have AC? It is hard to see but it looks like it may have mounting brackets for the compressor (York?) if so another hint hint.

I hear you on need to know what part are needed before you get rid of them.
The plate is what I need more than AC brackets as my project did not have one installed when I got it.
When you know let me know
Thanks
