You'd need the brackets used on 68-72 340 A Bodies and their biscuits. One of the easiest ways to acquire them is through Schumacher.

$129 + $13 shipping.
They are listed as 67-72 340/360 replacement kits.

Thanks...it may come to this. I was hoping to be able to use some kind of salvage brackets on the engine .
Again thanks for the help !!

You might be able to. The passenger side is the same for a bunch of years, 273, 318 and 340. The driver's side is harder to come by. It was only used on 68-72 340 cars. I know that Bill Cowger usually has a set for sale, but I can't find any of his ads right now.
Some people will tell you to use a 318 mount and use washers to space it out. I've done it before, and didn't really like it. It is an option, though.

If you have a buddy with a welder you can cut the 318 down to size and weld it.
Did that when I replaced the 318 with a 360 in my 72 Swinger.
works good lasts long time:happy8:
