The Ford Barn

I have a 1952 F1 that I'm working on. It came with a 1963 FE 352 very poorly installed. As it is it will never pass a safety inspection. I have a 1951 Flathead that I have redone and hope to eventually install.

Just to keep my options open - I was wondering if it is possible to properly fit that FE 352 in this truck. Has anyone tried it? I've looked for motor mounts for this online and they don't seem to be available. Also the oil pan would need to be changed so that the sump is at the back since it hits the front axle. Is such a pan available? Anyone have any experience with this or any advice to give?
