Sorry but it’s not the 302-2 it’s the 301-1 that may be the problem but I think the sump is longer on the 302-2 and it may hit the k frame

The 302-2 is the one listed as the correct pan for your swap. It would give you the extra clearance at the front you need. If you are set on using the pan you have then you could try shim plates under the motor mounts but this is going to raise the motor and mess with your driveline angles which would then have to be corrected as well.
