TimingChain Cover

I need to replace the timing chain cover on my 1969 351W 4v. I have acquired another timing chain cover off a mid 80's 351W. In comparing the two covers i noticed the timing pointers are two different styles. Will this newer covers timing pointer work with my old style harmonic balancer?

Isn't your old pointer a bolt on piece? If so, just bolt it back on in the original location.

If it's in a different location, you will definitely have to do something to move it to the old pointer location.
