    I picked this up at a sale. My dad says its for a 371 Olds. Is it for a specific year? Will it only fit the 371 Olds? If you have any info, that'd be great. I googled the heck out of it and found nothing. None are on Evil-bay, either. Let me know... Here's some quality pictures:

    The 49-62 covers will all bolt on .....the difference is the relief inside for the fuel pump eccentric....49-51-2 covers dont have enough room for the larger eccentric

    Easy enough to check....
