Have you tried checking salvage yards so you can take the dimensions you need yourself? Getting your own dimensions is the ONLY way to get what you need.

Yea your better off geting your own. I have worked on them and they arent very large engines and I personally couldent think of any "conversion" that one couldent fit into without the typical mount issues. If you do find the measurments post them so they will be around in the future.

It does not do any good to post dimensions since there are no universally accepted reference points. Anyone looking at the dimensions will be scratching their heads and wondering from where to where??? Did they mean this point here , but what about this here??? It does not work. Sometimes I don't even recognize the dimensions I took 6 weeks later.

-Been there done that...
