Need some engine size info

Anyone know what kind of physical size difference there is between a 460 gas and a 7.3 diesel? Looking into a project, I know a 460 will fit in my engine bay hopefully a 7.3 is close.


Thanks in advance

Chris

Size wise the diesel is about 5 inches wider and 6 inches taller and about the same length wise.
