Question '64 318 to newer 360 swap?

Found a 360 I want to put into my 64 Polara 500, to replace the original 318 Poly, and have a few questions.

I know I'll need new motor mounts - found those at Schumakers.

Can I use the original 318 exhaust manifolds on a newer 360 engine?

Transmission - can I use the original 727 torqueflight that's in the car, and if so is there anything I need to modify to do so?

Any other problems I might face with doing this swap? It ***seems*** like it should be straightforward - but who knows...!!!

Thanks!

Thumbs up It will go

First off the manifolds are different,the old cable shift should bolt up but the balance might be different.What year motor is it?I just dont know if a late converter will go in or not.If you are lucky enough to score a steel crank 360,the old one should be fine.
