I agree with Jerry that the Chevy distributor should fit. What does not fit? I have a '54 or later Chevy distributor in my '52 GMC 228. I've had my original 228 GMC distributor in a '57 GMC 270. I'm not saying the advance curves are the same or the gear material is compatible, but nothing kept me from plugging them in.
All 1955.2 thru 1960 248, 270 and 302 cubic inch GMC engines used the same distributor, part # 1112414. I don't have parts documentation for '54 through 1st series 55 GMC or any Chevy documentation. Prior to '54 the distributor was noticeably shorter, especially from the cap up.
Googling "distributor 1112414" turns up a BUNCH (that a big bunch) of distributors that the sellers say are for a '54-62 Chevy 235 and GMC engines.
