A 95 should already be HEI. You can use a standard HEI distributor !BUT! if it's set up like my 427 is you'll have to take the drive gear off the new distributor and cut the shaft. Then reuse the original gear from your truck. I believe I have pictures if you need more details.

Going a 2 bbl is a bad idea, don't waste your time.

The 366/427 in medium dutys are tall decks so you have to have a tall deck specific manifold. I happen to have one sitting in my garage not being used. Shipping would be outrageous.

The simplest straightforward way would be swapping to a tall deck manifold. From there everything would be pretty easy. Also don't forget you'll need a low pressure fuel pump and new gas lines. TBI motors run a much higher fuel pressure in a smaller line.
