It threw a rod through the crank case. Are all crank cases generic? The model# is50473m. Is it worthwhile to restore?

Well the 41.5 cubic inch displacement was used from 1971 thru 1975. Whether or not the block casting remained the same I don't know.

It is a 44 yr old motor, parts are not always easy to find. It would probably be easier and cheaper overall to find a newer use engine

Crankcases are matched to the cylinder block and not interchangeable.
