    Can anyone tell me how long-tall (roughly) an F-head block is?

    Just want to compare it to the OM616 I got sitting on the floor to get an idea of how this fitment is goint to work out.

    Thanks,
    Don

    Nobodies got a tape measure and 5 minutes of their time, or can at least point me to a link with those dimensions? :rofl:

    34 - 34.5" oil pan to top of the air horn, as best I can tell with a tape measure

    I get 18 inches front to back at the top of the block, and 24 to 25 inches from the front of the bell housing to the front of the fan.:coffee: :hurrican:
    That is the F134. L134 should be the same.:coffee:

    Well, it looks as though the OM616 is 3-4" longer than the :hurrican: . I'm guessing I'll probably need to run a pusher fan, and maybe relocate the oil filter.

    How long is a :v6:, or a SBC?

    Thanks again,
    Don
