Default Are all motor mounts in the same location?

I am installing an LS into a 70 Camaro with a DSE front sub frame and DSE mounts and adapter plates. These are listed as fitting LS1,2,3,7. I have the engine lowered into the engine bay, but the MSD intake is riding on the firewall and I still need another 1/2" or so get the mounts to line up. In addition, the transmission is hitting the top of the tunnel, so there is no room there. It just looks like overall, the engine is just too far back...


The block I am using is an ERL, Darton - sleeved 6.0 (don't know the specific variation).


The question is, do all "LS" blocks have the motor mounts located in the same position?

Thanks.

Externally, ALL LS blocks are pretty much identical.
