Smile Has anyone used the universal engine mount?

Hello all,
I've tried to search this site for info before asking, found nothing on what I need. Anyway, I have a 59 Apache that I want to drop a 350 in with a 4spd. I already have the universal engine crossmember mount with the block motor mounts, just am not sure on where to bolt it in? I want to keep the stock straight axle, and floor pedals.

The truck had a 283/700r4 with a fabbed front mount, two original front peg type. This won't work with the 350 I want to drop in, I should say that I'm leary of that setup.

Barring trying to set in the whole drivetrain to get a measurement, I was hoping someone on this site might be able to give me some help, pointers, ideas, come over and assist

I've got to say, there are some awesome trucks on this site, you guys do great work, with excellent photos showing the work. If I had the talents, I'd probably try putting a different frame setup on it, but am a one man show here. I do have several 73-77 El Caminos that I was considering trying to put the truck on one of those frames, but haven't gotten any measurements yet....

Thanks for any and all your help!

I'd do pics, but ain't that smart, and don't have a host to store em yet.
