Default LS-1 Engine similarities

What are the similarities/differences between a LS1 and the older 350's. More intereseted in the good'ole 350 from the 60's & 70's.
I have friend w/a busted '69 350 camaro and lots of money/time for an engine swap. He looking at mostly dimensions, mounts, and tranny mounts.

Thanks
