I hear the mounts location are not the same so don’t want to buy the 54 block until I’m sure. Any info will be appreciated!

So, as long as you're using front and rear mounts, then yes it will work. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 | Hy chevyator, welcome, unfortunately if the engine block is truly no newer than 1954 I don't think it will have the front/side bosses that the 1955 B or second series through 1959 use to bolt the front engine mounts to. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 1,453 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 1,453 | I've got a 55.1 261, has no cast pad or bolt holes on front sides of block, can only mount from timing cover plate.
