1965 Polara Hemi Swap

Just picked up a 65 Polara with a stroker 383 and an a833. Engine has some issues and I want to swap in a 528” Hemi, the car has a later B body k member in and relocates the engine back about 2”

couple of questions

1) I’m looking at tin man Hemi mounts, will these work in my combo? What would you use?

2) what headers? Will 68 and up b body headers work? What headers would you run?

3) what oil pan fits well? The current wedge has a milodon pan with external pick-up and the steering linkage goes thru the pan, and it hangs down very low. I guess it will work, but may want to simplify things and just use an in pan Pick-up....... thoughts?

I think the items from a 1966 Coronet hemi car will fit the 1965.... But i am Not 100% what all needs to be changed to make that swap....
K-Member i think is different..... Header interference? not sure of.... Good Luck on the project. Would love the follow ups if you pull the trigger in that project...
