I have a friend that is looking to sell a nice '62 Willys pickup with a V8 conversion. I am trying to ID the engine. On the surface, the engine looks like a Chevy small block, but the distributor is on the front right. However, there is an apparent mounting area for a dizzy in the left rear, too?? The distributor is mounted in a Pete Jackson aluminum housing that also spaces the water pump away from the block.

Help is requested, please.
