Got a 87 Cutlass Supreme original olds 307. I know so far size wise its not different except maybe the mounts. But what would I need to change to go to a 87' 350Chevy engine?

Engine Mounts.

I believe transmission mounts also for Chevy Trans,
CHEVY 3O9
u have to change, engine mounts, transmission and crossmember
as for the 87 350 u dont need no computer, its going to be carb
SKEEMASK
So I can ditch the computer? I know that yr they had a quadrojet carb. electric choke which I think is whats different bout them, IDK. Im lost when u start talking bout whats under the hood.
