Does anyone know have any tips on this change out that will make it easier ? If you move the engine saddles forward will the 350 be in right I can see holes are already drilled from the factory and I would think that was so they could use the same cross member for a v6 & v8 am I right or wrong on this ?

You are correct. Read this thread about motor mounts.
