Welcome to the board!
There are many things to consider for this swap:
- Exhaust manifolds exit in a different spot, you'll need exhaust work
- Wiring harness will have to be modified or replaced to suit the different locations for distributor, etc. (Are you going to do HEI? If so you probably don't need your resistor wire)
- Bellhousing bolt pattern will be different, you'll probably be better off to switch to a Chevy bellhousing pattern tranny (but the crossmember will probably still work fine)
- Like you said, motor mounts and frame brackets- but I assume you could find a donor car with a 350 and use those brackets & mounts
- Radiator hoses will be different
- You will probably need to change the power steering pump, or at least the bracket, I'm not sure
- Your fuel lines will have to be replaced with new, since the fuel inlet location is different with the different carb
- I *think* your throttle cable will still work okay, but you should check it out
By the time you replace all of those things, are you sure it will be cheaper? (Not criticizing, just asking!)
