Yes the're strongest 97's (old hot rod carbs). The engine is roughly 3" longer and 3" wider than the 2.5. It will fit on the same engine mounts though( if there is room). I had to make mine. The plugs are as deep as the 2.5 I even think they share plug tubes. What you can see is some old Talbot express plug extensions. I have to make some exhaust manifolds now and I'll be ready for a fire up!
