    Yep, same bolt pattern. A pretty good upgrade swap. The critical thing is the throttle valve cable on 200R4's.
    This place has some good info on that.

    There is a detailed article on this swap into a 67 Skylark with a 340 in the August 2000 issue of Hot Rod.

    Their website has a pay download feature for you to get a copy of the article.
