Some specs for the EM100 EM100 Cylinder bore 100 mm Dry weight 296 lb. Dimensions LxWxH (inches) 22.8 x 41.3 x 18.5 Horsepower 325 @ 3,500 rpm Torque 664 lb.-ft @ 2,100 rpm Power density 1.1 hp per lb. Overkill HP, but will the block fit? I assume their EM65 would be smaller (not having 2 or more engines tandem via what I assume is some kind VC?) Neil.
