They may LOOK similar... but they are not. The 420 is a M116 block.. the 560 is a M117. Not interchangeable either.... and would have to be rewired in order to fit.

My recommendation ins find a good 420 engine *IF* your car is in great shape besides the motor. IF not... sell or part out... and buy another 420 or 560. Good luck
