he will need to get a big block 727 transmission as the 318 probably has a 904 behind it and it is a small block tranny.your brother could leave the small block torsion bars in the car (mopars don't have coil springs)if he wants to use the car for strip action ,but if this is a street car i would get a set of bars for a BB car.
he will have to get a bigger rad. to keep it cool and run the viscous coupled fan with a shroud.if he can get a motor with all the accesories on it it will be easier than sourcing brackets ,but they are all ready available.I'm not sure on the mounts on a 74 as i think they went to spool style mount I would check with
Schumacher Creative Services
they make all kinds of mounts for engine swaps.
I have several mopars and am currently doing a similar swap.I am putting a 383 in my 72 charger which is now a 318.
sounds like a fun car when he gets it done
