If your distributor will go in I'd say the engine is probably in the right place. My 72 blazer has a v8 and it's tight. The previous owner may have made some changes. If you bought a disassembled project you may run into some issues with fitment.
Those rear springs look fairly new. Is it possible that the rear axle has been shifted forward a little? Is the locator spring centered in the spring? Could the springs be backwards?
I'd recommend that you join a 4 wheel drive club or something and befriend some people there locally with some more extensive general mechanical knowledge.
