Arent some of the accessory mounts different? Or maybe motor mounts? Because on an H-body you havet o loosen a motor mount to remove the serpentine belt, where on a W-body you dont.

I think the block should have provisions for those mounts, though. Not positive, but I can't imagine there would be different block castings.
