How do you get all the little vacuum things to hook up since I’ll be putting a completely different deal in there
Since you are not running the factory computer there are only a few vacuum lines that are actually needed for the ac/heat system.

If by square you mean a pan with kickouts then you should have no issues, most headers are designed around this style pan, even the Ebay headers in my Regal.
