Well since no one spoke up I will put my GUESS up and see if anyone really knows. My guess is the later block motor mount setup is the same as the 360-340 style. If it is you can either modify your brackets or get swap brackets. For the work I modified my brackets. On 1 side it just takes some minor spacers, I just used some washers. On the other I welded on a piece to relocate to where the block mounting was for 1 bolt. Total about 45 minutes.

I modified my bracket like amx364 did.
