Definitive answer for I6 to SBC 350 swap.

I have been searching for about a month now to find out what is needed to do this swap and I have found a LOT of varying information on motor mounts, engine frame stands, engine location, transmission and bellhousing location and so on. Some say the I6 engine mounts and frame stands work with a SBC, some say they do not work. Some say you can use the I6 frame stands and small block engine mounts, some say you need both for a small block. Etc.

So I am hoping someone can give me a clear answer on this.

I have a 1972 C10 LWB with an inline 6 250 and 4 speed Muncie. Can I literally unbolt the inline 6 from the frame and bellhousing and bolt in a small block?

If so, sweet that's all I need to know.

If not, What do I need? Different engine mounts? Different engine frame stands? What location for the frame stands, front holes or rear holes?

Thanks in advance for any help clearing this up. I am new to all of this and there seems to be a lot of info out there and it's tough to sort out what's fact and fiction.
