Re: 5.3 engine mounts
I already have a 350 in the truck so are those what I will need I was thinking that I only need the bracket for the engine.

Re: 5.3 engine mounts
depending on your exhaust manifold/header clearance, what you have for engine stands may work.
I made my own adapter plates to be able to bolt my 5.3L to the SBC motor mounts. There are a few threads about how to do this. Might check the lsx swap info sticky thread above.
