yes it would fit.... dont know length, but if it needed to come foward a bit try a electric water pump, could also mount radiator remotely.

mate i run the 4.1 250 X-flow with a C4 Auto and 60 LC t-case fits in no worries customs mounts adn all that, I don't think ya get the auto to fit the MQ t-case however.

Maybe contact Dellow Adaptors

the front ov my MQ mixed with a ford fairlane for a second or so a cpl of weeks back, but the ford got so scared it crumpled itself up in an effort to get away... so id say, no, they dont mix...
