I saw accessories and flywheel in orig post . The flywheel will need to match your crankshaft -balance needs if your going to a gen 4 tall deck from something later then add oil pan , you will need to make sure distributor is where it needs to be in relation to your intake pad and such . Generally wont just swap out unless you have a special intake that puts dist back down in hole.crapshoot on accessories , if you have a buddy thats a good welder the exhaust will be fairly easy .you might be able to fab the riser tailpipe joint without welding , already forgot which exhaust you were running sorry

There it is gil . Might be able to pull the 4 manifold studs and fab a adapter to redirect pipes back .think i remember a guy cutting out 4 pretty quick out of 3036 that put the tails back to the tips.you will need another set of gaskets

My motors are 35 1/4 " crank to crank and i have about 1 1/2" between inside exhaust manifolds.

Also remember using different heads with raised exhaust ports will change tail location also.

The 10.2 deck engine is going to be 2" wider at the exhaust as well.
