Default Engine Swap

ok, so i have a 1999 camaro v6 5speed. this coming summer im planning on taking the engine out and putting a carburated 383 stroker in it. (yea i know..yall probably thinking its dumb, but its just a project for me). anyways i was wondering bout motor mounts because im pretty sure ima have to do sum modification. what would be the best way to do this so the 383 will have sumthin to hold onto?

actually if you us a LT1 and change it to a crabd. motor and use the motor mounts from that everything should bolt up just fine, you will still have to get a like a 18 curcit wirehardness for headlights and what ever else tho, i put a 460 big block in my crown vic and i had to do the same thing...work out great tho...then i sold it lol...but yeah it will would but id go with an LT1 crab it, then use those motor mounts...i was thinking bout crab. my v8 but im a techie goorooh and rather say with the FI plus it looks cooler lol....

Think of where the distributor is going to fit if you are going to use a regular small block.
