Timing cover 371

Does anyone know if 1957 Oldsmobile 88 371 v8 engine motor front timing cover fits a 1960 371 engine?

1957-58 (371) were different than 1959-64 (371/394) engine blocks. I don't believe they interchange. More knowledgeable people will chime in and confirm this.

According to my parts book , no .
It lists 1957 all by itself .
However , it does list 1958 thru 62 as being all the same . So any cover from those years should fit your '60 .

For a free download of the 49 thru 63 parts book see this thread ;
