Default Ls motor mount locations compared to a sbc ?

Hello I have a 1938 Oldsmobile business coupe with a 1967 327 and a 700r4 setup in it right now and I've been wanting to put in a ls in it .
I was trying to find out the info from frount of the block to center of the motor mount on the ls compared to the 327 I have universal motor mounts welded to the frame universal ones from speedway motors part number 9101842 so their are tabs welded to the frame.
So I'm not sure if I can re use them or have to cut off the tabs and weld them in a different location for the ls thank you Kelly
