Sounds ambitious. Unfortunately, I doubt that you'll find anyone who makes headers or mounts for this swap, most likely you'll need to fab your own. You'll probably also need a custom air cleaner assembly to get the shaker height correct. Why not just go for a Pontiac 455? There's way more aftermarket support for a Pontiac V8 than a Buick. By the time you spend $$ on fitting in the Buick, you could've built an Olds 403 that makes as much power and bolts right in.
