Default 57-64 Olds/Pontiac rear into a 65?

With the recent resurgence of parts available for the 57-64 Olds/Pontiac rear ends can such a rear be put under a 65 Catalina?
I am curious as it is:
An interesting conversation piece - keeps it "Pontiac".
A stout unit.
Makes changing rear gears easier.

I am clueless on how springs and control arms would mount - also not sure of axle positioning and pinion angles.

Note - have 2.93 and 3.73 ratios for original rear, with the original posi unit.
If a car was to be raced, then the original rear can just be stored.
