David,
Can you get a chassis number from your customer? There are a few Chevy powered Aces kicking around, but none of them came from the factory that way, that I am aware of. However, BEX327 (you should probably be able to Google it to get the complete story) was delivered to the US without an engine in 1957, and had a Chevy V8 installed in it to go racing. If you can pass along a chassis number I can give you info on its original power plant and point your customer to one of the AC Owner's Club Registrars who may be able to fill in some history on the car.
Jay
