Default v6 to v8 swap

hey guys new to the forum i have a 1990 d-150 originally a 3.9 v6 found a 360 out of a motor home turns out the motor is a 1973. i've been having a really hard time trying to get the motor lined up seems i cant find the correct motor mount brackets. i have the extension plate and the correct motor mounts but the brackets are a different story i guess. any help or input would be appreciated thanks!

I reckon that 1990 dodge pickup 360 mounts/brackets will work perfect.

I put a 1990 Cummins (from a d250) into an 84 2wd ramcharger and it's factory-fit.
