I don't think the new engine is a '75 model. I am not sure, but I think a '75 350 would have the dipstick on the driver's side.

There is no way to tell if the manifolds will match up to the exhaust other than to look at the manifolds and see if they are the same on both trucks. if they are, it will work. If they are not, it won't.

If they are not, and both engines have passenger side dipsticks, use the old manifolds on the new engine. If they have dipsticks o two different sides, I don't thing the manifolds are interchangeable.
