Never been asked this question out of context before. Unless your trying to fit this thing into a canoe, I can't think of a reason you would need to know..

What are your plans bud?

The plan is, to fit this utterly gorgeous motor into a Mx5, to make one of the best handling cars for road and track have one of the best engine known to man :) plus also to shed about 500kg off the original weight.

Plus as you might guess the canoe comment isnt actually too far from the mark, the bay was designed with a v6 in mind, but in the end they went straight 4, but i really want to fit the N52B30.

Many things to consider... Wiring, ECU, sensors etc... It will fit, but there'll be NO room for improvent LOL

Engines are far narrower from the block-down, its jut the top-end stuff and management that'll bugger yer brains !!

HTH

Aye, the main areas that are physically of most concern is the actual hight of the engine, and also how long the block actually is. im pretty sure it will fit, but id like to know some numbers before i start spending lol :D
