Default 50's cadillacs anyone?

Anyone out there LS'd an older caddy? I have a 1951 and a 5.3 that I just picked up. Was wondering about what mounts were used? This is my 3rd swap, I searched and couldn't find any older caddy's.

I have seen one or two locally, but have not details or them on any forum. You should have lots of room. So it can be done !
