Engine Dimensions

hamletl · 02-23-2016, 03:12 PM

Hey guys! Curious if any one here on the forum knows the dimensions of the engine i.e. total length and width? I have been unable to find it anywhere.

Thanks for your help!

1) I was just curious because I have never been able to find them
2) I have never seen any one really do any kind of engine swap on the car except for another s65 or s85.

I have always loved the idea of swapping engines in any car and maybe when mine finally blows (hopefully in a very long time) I could possibly go down the swap road. I know I will catch a lot of flack on here because of this very interest but its worth asking about. Believe me when I say I love the s65 but why not explore other options when the time comes! In the end I may stay on the straight and narrow and do the thing many on here would prefer i.e. get another s65.
