Motor mounts

I am getting close to the time I am going to install my new to me motor. My question to y'all who have way more experience with this than I do is if the motor is a 1980-1985 350 but I am going to install it into my 1972 Cheyenne Super, which mounts do I get and can I just buy the inserts?
I assume my old mounts are fine on the 1972 but will need new inserts which I just ordered but will my old mounts bolt up to the new block?
Note: both motors are 5.7 350 V8

Both engines would mount the same....

Re: Motor mounts

Thanks. I'm going to remove the old ones and clean and paint them then reuse them with the new inserts.

Re: Motor mounts

Lockdoc is correct other than I think the 265 SBC every other SBC bolts up the same.
