235 in a 67 C10?

OK, a little history so you guys will understand exactly why I want to do this:

Back in the day (about 1966), my dad bought his dad's 62 bel air. It was a coupe with a 235 and 3 on the tree. My dad being the speed nut that he is, and with a lack of good motors, heavily modified the 235. It's got a 3/4 race cam, 10:1 compression, headers, dual 1 BBL intake that he modified to fit 2 corvair carbs, port and polish on the head, bored .060 over. He said with 4.11's, it ran mid-high 13's. Then he found a 283, threw that in and ran low 13's before he sold it for a 72 nova (350/350, posi rearend). Anyway, the point is that I have this hot-rodded 235 sitting there all alone in a corner of our basement. When it was put away, the intake and headers came off, but it's still all there, just missing the corvair carbs. I could run the single 1bbl for now, until I can locate 2 corvair carbs.

Regardless, I've got this sweet 235, or a turd of a 250 that might run. then again, it might not. depends on it's mood. I'd like to throw this 235 in my 67 pickemup, but I'm not sure if the motor mounts will work, and if they won't, what mounts I could use, or if I would have to fab them up.

Any help would be appreciated. Oh, and BTW, you haven't heard weird until you've heard a 235 like this one idling at 1100 RPM's because it won't idle slower. Sweet!
