engine swap
 
I am wanting to pull my 350 out of my 69 and replace it with a 402. will I need to change motor mounts or will the 402 bolt right in?

You could probably make them work...but it won't "bolt right in". If you are picking up a 402, get all the accessories that you can with it.

You need the mounts too. The big blocks had a droop in the frame mounts that allowed manifold clearance that the small block frame mounts don't have. If you use small block mounts you're not going to be able to find a manifold or header that clears them.
