It's a tried & true swap done all the time. As far as the auto Transmission , I would advise against it because of the short driveline length. That's why Jeep add 10" an made the CJ7 , the 1st factory CJ with an automatic Transmission .
As far as motor mounts, my years of experience tell me initial cost of motor mounts seldom tell the whole story. In my opinion M.O.R.E. bombpruff View attachment 1187motor mounts are the way to go, but Novak & Advanced Adapter both have all the adapters you will ever need.
