I have a 389 engine in the pontiac... do you think the 350 caddy engine has the same mounting bolts etc.??? I havent seen it yet because it is in another town but the price is right if it will fit. My linkage is all on the drivers side if the pontiac.

The only thing that should be different are the mounts themselves that is the tranny mount
