I believe the 440 will drop in with a set of 63 440 motor mounts.

Well one thing you will not find a set of 63 440 mounts, as this motor didn't exsist back then. Any 361-413 mounts will work. The challenge is finding an oil pan that will clear the K-frame. Most motorhome engines have either front sump or rear sump oil pans which are usually deep to hold extra oil. Does your car have a push button shift, or on the columb? Not a huge job if you have the right parts.
