Default Motor mounts for 1970 Cutlass

Hey there,
I have a 1970 Cutlass that I'm rebuilding, and I plan to purchase a remanufactured 1970 Olds 250 Cid L6, and i currently have an olds 350 in the car right now, but it's pretty much gone, so I'd like to lighten up the car, get a straight six.
My Cutlass comes with airconditioning.
Where could I get the motor mounts for the L6, and the adaptors to mount the L6 to the TH350 auto trans that I just rebuilt, and would the olds 250 L6 carry the airconditioning part, or no?
Thanks,
Brandon

You're not really going to loose weight by going that route. And then you have the task of trying to make the wiring work. Finding A/C brackets for a straight 6 is going to be a NIGHTMARE to say the least. Why don't you just rebuild the 350?

I drove a 72 Cutlass every day with a 350 and got 20+ mpg doing it. If you do a basic stock build you should be able to achieve the same results.

Try online stores.. I think you will have greater chance of finding the engine mounts that you are looking for, there are lots of them. Can't direct you to one though. Any pics of your cutlass?? That's sure is a great ride. Good luck.
