On the 356 Engine the distributor is mounted dead center in the length of the block. On the 288 and 327 it is mounted quite a decent offset towards the front.

If indeed you have the 288, you will want to get rid of that 356 head as it will give you very low compression and steal a lot of performance and economy.
