Who makes motor mounts??

I think you can use the 727 auto trans, they make a flex plate adapter for it at xvmotorsports.com, the 5.7 has the same bolt pattern as a small block bell housing 727.

Heres a good thread about 5.7 swaps I found a while back, it had some pretty good info in it:

I think these would be the motor mounts:

as stated ---   SB727 will work without cutting with adapters

TTI makes the motor mounts and headers you will need

Here's a link to the thread on my build - page 5 gets into the engine installation
