Actually..... you can use one on a /5. switch to a crank ignition, block the cam hole in the cover, replace the oil pump with a later version. The double row cam gear fits perfectly on the bean can cam. I did all this on my early model /6. Also...on a /5 you need to clearance the inside of the block around the bottom end of the lifters. I placed my 336 inside a /5 block and found that the lobes connected with the block in this region by just a small amount.
