I can figure the head gaskets intake stuff are the timing covers etc different ?

Most of the gasmets are the same. The difference comes in if you use the 84'-85 intake on a 74' and up engine. the water outlets ore different and you will need to use the timing cover off of a 80's model on a 70's model to make it work if you want to run the newer intake. The only other difference in the motors is that the 70's motors were made in Germany.
