I think I found the answer here

 same as a big block

HOW CLOSE IS IT IN SIZE TO THE 350V8? ROUGHLY THE SAME? SAME MOTOR MOUNTS?

Not the same mounts but easy to adapt, either fabricate locally or possible
obtain from a company called MARS. It will fit with a little banging on the
fire wall sheet metal for the valve cover to clear.

The 6.2 is based on the Chevy Big block i.e. the 396/427/454. It is a little
heavier

It's 379 cu in. It's heftier, best bet is to find a full size blazer with
one and look... I'd say it's pretty close, if not the same size.
