No not even close. Chevy redesigned them in late 1999.
Most likely a Chev 350.
it is a 1969-1979 motor it was used in cars, trucks, and vettes
No, but the mounts themselves are different, and the 1979 may have an extra pair of mounts for the cab.
Take the bolt out of motor mount on the side that you're changing and jack the engine up and change the mount. When you're done with one side, do the same with the other.

You can find a 1979 Chevrolet Camaro belt diagram at most Chevrolet dealerships. The belt diagram can also be found in Chevrolet service manuals.
I'd stick with Chevrolet V8's from before 1986 for the easiest swap.
Sure you can but it is a hard swap. The original transmission won't mount to the 360 motor. Motor mounts are going to be different and your going to have to change the exhaust. Visit us here at http://7879blueovalbronco.com/forums/ if you have more questions.
Depends on the model. If it doesn't have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of more than 26,000 lbs., then no. In 1979, Chevrolet and GMC manufactured trucks in all weight classes, including Class 7 and 8 (which do require a CDL).
Yes, the 350,400,or 455 will out weigh the 301 by about 200lbs, so the front end will sag under the additional weight. Depending on the year of the motor you are swapping in you may be able to use the stock mounts. 1970-1979 Pontiac V8s had five bolt bosses per side and will bolt up to the 301 mounts. Pre '70 only had two bolts per side making a mount swap nessary.
