Can a Chevy 350 small block with turbo 350 tranny fit into a 1960 tbird? Seems the oil pan won't clear steering???

Maybe the FoMoCo engine died and he had a spare 350. I would prefer a Mopar 383 but that’s just me.why downgrade the value of your Tbird with a p.o.s. Chevy 350 ? disgraceful......
Mopar would be far better than a GM anything.... 383 were strong as long as you opened the crank journals a bit more....but there's a plethora of Ford motors that would fit fine in that Bird tooMaybe the FoMoCo engine died and he had a spare 350. I would prefer a Mopar 383 but that’s just me.
Yes, I had a 350 w/tranny already. I found the ‘60 T bird at a scrap yard. They were going to crush it. It only had the block and crank of a 352 in it. So I thought I would try and put the 350/350 in it, but no luck. I’ve read where some of the Chevy II and Novas had front sump pans and could possibly convert mine but haven’t researched enough to be sure. Just thought maybe someone on here had done it. Any suggestions where to find an engine that would fit it??Maybe the FoMoCo engine died and he had a spare 350. I would prefer a Mopar 383 but that’s just me.
Well the value of it as it is isn’t much. Had a hull of a block and crank when I saved it from the crusher. I had a 350/350 already and decided to try it. No luck unless I can make the 350 a front sump.why downgrade the value of your Tbird with a p.o.s. Chevy 350 ? disgraceful......
