I also used the Chevy's large rubber frame half of the motor mount. I used the Pontiac metal half of the engine mount bolted to the Chevy bottom frame mount. I assembled everything then lowered the engine into the frame. Where the brackets hit the frame rails and cross member I drill holes and bolted it all in. It wasn't necessary to fab anything.
