Not the best way to start a project ..
 The cases are matched sets , meaning during assembly  they are machined ( Line bored )  while together 
Not to say you might get by , but not a  proper  way to build a motor 
Good Luck

Samantha ! The engine cases are machined as a pair along with the main bearing cap.
You will need to replace the whole lot as a set and not just the top case.
Replacing just the top case has been done in the past ( mostly in racing situations as a last resort  ) but requires careful measurement and professional adjustment to be made possible and even then it isn't ideal or a permanent solution.
What is wrong with your top case half ?
