I'm speculating on this, but the rear brake assembly is different on the GT350. Going back to my post about the brake upgrade kits, the kit provides new rear knuckles to enable GT350 brakes on the GT/Ecoboost. That would suggest that the brackets and mounting holes to used to attach the brake components will be in different locations on the two different knuckles. That, if correct, would mean that if you want to mount the brakes from a GT/Ecoboost, you'll need the GT/Ecoboost knuckle like the one in the kit. The one in the kit also has stiffer bushings in it - the GT350 came with those from the factory but the GT's didn't.
I guess what I’m trying to get at if I put those knuckles with gt brakes and rotors would it all just bolt together or is something not going to fit

So I have the Ford Performance GT350 brake kit (M-2300-Y) on my 2020 GT. You would need the GT knuckles, calipers, rotors, and e-brake cables from what I remember. (Those are all the parts I swapped for GT350 stuff. There maybe a bracket or two I am forgetting about, would have to dig through my parts to refresh my memory.) I sold my GT calipers and rotors, but I still have the knuckles and e-brake cables, so if you are interested, I will dig them out this weekend and send you some pics.

The link below is the brake kit I got.

On that page you will find a link to the instructions, will give you an idea of what you would need to replace. I believe LMR even has a install video for that kit, can look at that also.
