Default K-Member Help

I recently purchased this k-member from a guy who had it around for a couple of years. When purchased, I never paid close attention to the engine mount but once installed I realized that this is not a typical engine mount. I am now stuck and am looking for any kind of help as to what brand this possibly may be and if there is a mount made to adapt this to a typical 302 mount.

Maybe those are perches for solid mounts.

Thats the problem the person who I bought this set-up from is no longer around and getting in contact with him is no longer an option. I was just curious as to whether anyone would have seen this set-up and if so if there is a special motor mount set-up for it.

your gonna have to mock set the tranny and engine down in there and mark where the holes with the motor mounts attacde to the motor where new holes need to be drilled, in fact if the k-member is for a big block you'll be pullin it to get the right one[&:]

Yeah I have a extra block, and a empty transmission case and I figured this would have to be the route I would have to take. I bought this k-member in a package deal with a bunch of other parts, looks like I should have just left the k-member outof the deal, now I have the motor done and no car to put it in!!!
