Ayuh,... It don't say what Vintage it is....

The distributer don't care, but the intake manifold cares which heads are used...
The heads you choose will determine if the manifold will fit...

I used a truck block in my Glastron which had a 305 and went to a 350. I had the freeze plugs changed to brass, a double roller timing chain, and a RV cam. I then used an edelbrock Alum intake manifold that was designed for torque. That boat jumped out of the hole.
