Yes, you are on the right site. Your engine number indicates it was originally in a 1939 One-Twenty, 282 cu. in. in-line 8-cylinder. The "A" suffix probably means it was originally fitted with a Borg & Beck clutch, instead of the Long normally used. Description of the transmission levers would indicate that it has an overdrive. Two levers on driver side for transmission and one lever on passenger side for overdrive lockout. Does it have any accessories like water pump, manifolds, distributor, starter, generator, carburetor? Does the transmission have a solenoid and governor? Some photos would be most useful.
