2.8 to 350 carb
I am currently building up a 350 truck motor to drop into an 85 camaro, ive heard that the 700r4 i have will not bolt up with this engine, is this true? also what about the engine mounts? and any tips/ideas about what to do with the computer will be helpful.

Yes, it's true, your V6 tranny will not bolt up to a V8.
Take a good look through the posts on this board for about the last month, you'll see what all you have to do to put a V8 in.
