If you want side mounts you will probably need to make them. Take a look at Langdon's mounts for a 250, they are not too hard to make.

No you do not. You can use the front mount plate from an older GMC 228, 248, 270 or a 235 Chevy.

Thats the answer I wanted to here. I thought I could do that but I haven't put the engines side by side yet to check.
