?? Help needed ! Mount Ohc engine in older Volvo?

A friend is looking for info on an engine swap-
he has a '62 1800 with a very tired engine, and
recently scored a low mileage twincam @ the local
Pick 'n pull.
What PARTS are needed to make this swap? I believe
the B-20 oil pan will work, but what about the oil pump?
installing the engine vertical seems to be the best
option. Will the B-20 bellhousing work? What about the
injection? We may be able to use carburetors if neccesary.

Money is more of an issue than performance, or else
we'd probably build a B-20, maybe use one of Johnathan
Parker's supercharger kits. Unfortunately, a rebuild is
not an affordable option at this time.

Thanks in advance for your help,
Doug Rowe
