If your assembly this weekend is including setting the engine and trans, then it should be obvious were the crossmember should be bolted once engine and trans are in place.

the two outer holes are for a pontiac application, the two inner holes are for chavelle's, chavelles used a different crossmember that bolted solidly and directly to the frame mounts where as the pontiacs the cross member was sandwitched inside a rubber mount and clamped in place with an upper metal bracket, suposedly the chevelle set up is structurally stronger but tranmits a bit more drivetrain and road noise. some frames had only chevelle holes, some only had pontiac holes and some including replacement frames had both. depends on what car lines shared what assembly lines
