Default Pinto Engine Conversion Reversal?

I am considering buying this 1928 roadster. It is an original, all steel car, NOT one of the Shay reproductions. The car currently has a modern four cylinder (Pinto?) engine and transmission. The owner told me there was a conversion kit made awhile back to adapt this engine into a stock A. I have not yet seen the car in person (I'll probably be buying it sight-unseen) and was wondering if anyone here knew about these kits and what it took to install one. Of course, if I buy the car I want to put a stock Model A engine and transmission back into it and was wondering what problems I might incur? ( I realize the paint and upholstery are far less than correct, but, hey, the price is right!)Thanks in advance.
