Any 360/390 towers or snag some 6 cylinder towers. Same thing.

??? All engine perches (towers as YOU call them) BOLT to the frame. The FE engine and Inline-6 engines share the same perches. However, one engine family uses the rear mount holes (FE) and the other (6 bangers) use the forward holes.

If you do indeed not have a crossmember under the engine you better get one before the frame flexes in and snaps.

Both show a crossmember UNDER the engine...

1st pic shows the engine crossmember and front bumper crossmember...

Are you seriously missing the Engine crossmember?
