Can anybody who has put a 403 in a gbody tell me what they did for motor mounts? I'm at a real stand still here...nothing anybody is telling me is adding up, the parts simply just don't fit.
you need to get frame mounts and engine mounts from any G body with a 307 or 260 oldsmobile engine. The frame mounts go in totally different locations than chevy mounts shown in your pictures.The F body mounts will interfere with header installation. Take a look at my build thread for mounts and location on the frame. My car had a 260 and 455 fit in the same spot. The gold mounts on the frame are for an Olds engine

I have a set of olds frame mounts, i noticed an R and L stamped on them does this stand for left and right?
The problem i'm having is with the motor mounts that bolt to the engine. I bought a new set for an 85 olds cutlass with the 307. They don't fit to the "bracket" that bolts to the motor. Somebody told me i can bolt the mounts directly too the motor and skip the "bracket", if thats the case which of the three holes do i use?

The L and R do stand for left and right. They bolt to the frame using 2 bolts. The engine mounts you have from your first picture are correct and bolt directly to the block using 2 bolts. All the brackets you have are from an F body and sounld not be used. The rubber mount bolts directly to the engine block
Thank you for clarifying, i think i'm finally good to go. I just wanted to be sure i had all the correct parts here. Motor should be in the car by tomorrow 
sounds good.. post some picture's on your progress. It will be nice to see a oldsmobile powered Chevy.
Haha yeah i've been told this isn't exactly a common swap. I have a ton of pictures of the entire car buildup, i'm waiting to start the thread till she's done and running. Which should be next week.
Can somebody please put up a pic of which holes the brackets go I'm trying to put in 403 olds in my 82 regal n also what kind of transmission mount do I have to use for the t350. Thanks I'm kinda struggling
