I think we determined Sunday that I have E body brackets that I thought were A body brackets. Now I'm back on track and looking for the right one. From some pictures I have I believe that the passenger's side for a 318 and a 340 are different as well. Am I right? Will the passenger's side E body bracket work? Can the driver's side be modified to work? Anybody wanta trade?

They are different. Here's a thread that might give you some good info. you can use the 318 mount on the 340 with the use of a spacer.

Thanks that thread indicates that the passenger's side is the same for 318 and 340 for an A body. Here is a picture or the 318 mounts.

The 340 mounts, they appear to be clearly different to me. Or are there 4 bolt holes and the bolts are just in different holes?

OK, that talks about E body passenger's side bracket being the same so I guess the A body's are the same as well, since the block is the block E or A.

The pass side brackets are body specific to the A's.

B and E are different and it's the hole orientation on that side as well.

So both sides E and the A are different, got it. Is the 318 A body passenger's side bracket the same as a 340 A body passenger's side bracket?

the 273 a-body passenger bracket is the same however 1 bolt hole is not drilled....you can take and drill straight across to create hole required for 340-360.
