different engine to fit VAC

Any one have knowledge of different engine that would fit bell housing of a VAC? Any advice in appreciated.
 
I don't know that answer but that said I have a VAC with a Stockton hitch I would sell pretty cheap. Needs some carb work and just some good old TLC and it could e made to run
 
Any 300 engine should fit shouldn't it? Even the continental diesel that was offered? I did an eyeball and rough length measurement of a 580C engine and it looks like it would fit but it would be 1/2-1 1/2 in longer. (don't quote me on the length as its been some time since I measured)
 
It is a type of 3 point hitch that was on some of the older case tractors. Been told there not all that common but I have 2 VAC tractors that have them
 
The 126 (200b) and the 148 (300, 300b) are the only ones that will bolt in without modification. They are about 1/4" longer but the sheet metal can be tweaked enough that it will still work. The crank is longer in them to beef up the rear throw and therefore the block had to be made longer to accommodate the additional length. All other engines have larger flywheel and clutch setups and have a larger bolt pattern at the bell housing. Not saying they can't be made to work, just saying they are not a direct bolt in. Lee

Don't suppose you would be willing to share more on this one would you? Maybe start a new thread with some background, what you had to do (adapter plate? drill/tap some things? flywheel and clutch???) and most importantly maybe some pictures. Would love to hear more and see how it turned out.
