1. Overall engine length from rear of engine, bell housing mating surface to the front edge of the oil pan.
2. Inner Diameter of of exit pipe of stock exhaust manifold and bolt spacing of the two bolts that connect to down pipe.
3. distance from bellhousing mating surface of engine to where the engine mount bolts to the block
Thank you
Lantana, here's the dimensions you asked for
Exhaust manifold exit at the downpipe connection ID is 46mm
Bolt holes center to center is 80mm
The edge of the bell housing to the center of the mounting bolt of the engine mount (this is the top bolt shown in this photo) is 10 5/8"
And the edge of the bell housing to the leading edge of the lower oil pan is 23"... There are actually 2 oil pans on these engines, but I knew you needed the furthermost forward edge...
I hope this helps, if you need any other measurements let me know...
