If the front chassis rails are ny narrower than MY - you are in for some work or raise engine mounts or somethng. So many say EA82 don't fit in MY, I have sat an EA82 in my Brumby of standard height. Others have run them too, but in ugly width.....I dunno???

If you could lift body over the width of EA82 cambelt cases, well maybe, but thinking EA82 is a no no until someone proves otherwise. EA82 in MY is about 5mm clearance each side of chassis rails
