I do have a Delco- Remy dizzy and I'll need to look if it backed out but I dont think that's the case. Aside from better oil delivery and power steering bolt holes on the later 2f's what other benefits are there? I guess parts are a bit easier to come by too.
I've heard, back in the day, that the gears on the Delco dizzy didn't quite match up with the gear on the camshaft and could lead to failure, so you had to swap that gear to a Toyota gear. Maybe something to look at.
One thing about a 2F block is slightly more displacement, some bigger fasteners, like manifold studs and motor mounts.
If you can get a running F engine, you can swap that in in a weekend. Have a running Pig while you plan your next move...

Solid suggestion on the f motor as a interim solution.👍

I remember that on my 40, I decided to go all GM as in 327. :)
 
If you’re really looking to make a road trip. ONCE AGAIN, it’s the right coast…I have an’83 2F with 4 speed and split case.

We could also stop over in Atlantic City again! 😉
