That is true the v6 and I6 have different motor mounts and towers, but they both sit have the tranny in the same spot which is farther back than the 350. This is because the I6 and v6 have a longer overall length so they have to move the tranny back to avoid radiator interference. I know it sounds funny that the v6 is longer than the v8, but the v6 is a huge monster! It is also true that the 292 has motor towers that sit offset from each other, so one is the same as a 250 and the other is unique to the 292.
