Do i need anything special to do an engine swap from a 1999 3.8 v6 to a 350 such as motor mounts and headers

Crossmember, springs, motor mounts, possibly transmission (not sure on that one), drive shaft, pcm, engine harness, who knows what else.... Sell the v6 car and buy an ls1 or an lt1 car. It's much easier and cheaper.
