IFS Engine Mounts for a 429

Hey guys I have been working on a 1949 F-2 for a while, and I came across a f-1 frame with the Chassis Engineering IFS which i purchased. Im way excited because this allows me to have a shortbox which is super desirable to me. I have a 429 that i would like to use. The IFS has mounts welded in for a chevy 350, does anyone know where i can find weld in mounts for a 429? Thanks, i will post pictures as soon as i get a chance to take some.

Building engine mounts is pretty basic fab work. if you can install a complete IFS front end kit, cutting out a couple pieces of thin flat plate should be a breeze.

These are the mounts i used. You just have to do some trimming. I also had to modify the drivers side mount so i could get the steering linkage through it.
