BBC swap, engine mount question

When swapping to a big block I know I can use the stock frame mounts, but what mounts should I use on the block. Can I use small block mounts or use the stock big block mounts?
Thank you
Mike

You would use stock factory 3rd gen V8 clamshells.

So the ones that are on the 305 that came out of the car will bolt onto the big block with no problem.
