A few things to note:
The S62 requires a dry sump system.
You can run the oem oil pan with a S65.
It has a custom steering column. Moved to miss the engine and headers. That reminds me that the headers were custom made to work around the steering column.
*FYI. Just do an S65 if you want to avoid a bunch of expensive and custom parts. ����

I think the S65 has the same steering column challenges. Dry sump helps to make fitment easier but of course requires a ton of custom fabrication. Mine is dry-sump as well. Fall Line has done a few S62 versions and they are built very similar to the S65 vesion(s).
