Topic: Correct timing chain cover and pulleys/brackets for feb 65 A code

[GM]

I have an A code 289,15th feb 65 build, it has the Eaton power steering pump, auto trans power drum no other options.
I don't have the timing chain cover or the pulleys, (except the power steering pulley and brackets,
I also have a alternator bracket with a c5 number looks identical to the one with a c6 number.)
I don't know what the correct timing cover is for this era, is it the  C4OE-6059-A that takes the aluminum pump?
and if so where does the dipstick go?
I also have no idea, and am having trouble finding out the correct pulley arrangement for this engine,
am i supposed to have a triple pulley on the crankshaft or double?, what part numbers am i looking for?and where is a good place to buy them.
Does anyone know of a link to some good photo's of the above optioned motor?
I would really like to get this right so any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Your Feb. 65 289 would have had an aluminum water pump, so you'll need to find the C4OE timing cover.  If you decide to go after a date-correct one, you'll be looking for one with a 64 with 11 or 12 dots or a 65 with 1 or 2 dots.

The pulley arrangement with an Eaton pump is the same as the Ford pump, dual crank pulley going directly to the pump pulley.

A good source for information like this is the Bob Mannel book:  www.fordsmallblock.com

Thanks Caspian 65.
I will order that book, looks like a good thing.
Does the book get as specific as part numbers? or do you know another source for those.
Once i have the part numbers needed, Does anyone know a good source for the parts? or a good Mustang wrecker that knows his stuff.
Thanks again Caspian

Yes, the book contains a very comprehensive engineering/part number reference throughout the pages.
