Hello,

That is either a 413, 426 wedge or 440.
The "RB" block is a big block with the raised deck. The blue arrow below points to the angled and front mounted distributor.

The yellow arrow points to a flat pad that should have numbers punched into it. sometimes you'll get a full number like 440, sometimes the last number is missing so you may see the numbers 41 for 413, 42 for 426 wedge or 44 for 440.
Good luck!
 
And the car has a Bendix Disc brake power booster but a drum brake master cylinder..
Also looks like the whole bulkhead connector is gone...
Is there a hood latch tray there at all?
Looks like the upper rod of the kickdown linkage is installed upside down....

Cool project...

Thanks for info, but nope, no numbers punched, but maybe you can help me find the correct AC compressor with correct brackets? Owner wants to do conversion and i need full kit for engine pulleys, with 8 grooves as it said, tried looking online, but there is so much options, one of them was ordered and didn't fit.. it's quite hard finding something as it is my first time laying hands on such a thing..

Yes, there are some parts missing and can be installed uncorrectly, it's a mission to get things together now, the main goal is to find correct pulleys and AC compressor
 
Since your wanting a Serpentine belt system your going to need to look at an aftermarket (Sanden) A/C compressor.... Something like this...


Personally I'd use V belts, they were good enough for the first 100 years of cars, serpentine systems are nice but unnecessary and expensive...
