omega engine swap

i have a nice 78 omega sx(the red one). the 231 buick v6 is a nice motor but not much beans. i have a 95 4.3 v6 from a picumup that i am going to convert to carb and hei with small cam and headers. what motor mounts can i use? shud i just get the frame mounts from the truck and mount them on my crossmember. i am gonna use a 2004r trans so everything will match up. i got the complete serpentine belt system still on the 4.3 and plan on using an electric fan. because it is over 35 years old no inspection required in nc. any comments/suggestions appreciated. jerry ooohraaah

Going from EFI to carb is kind of a step in reverse. A much easier swap and better bang-for-the buck is a 350 Buick, pretty close to a bolt-in swap.
