Z134 in a TO30 Frankenferguson

I had thought it has been said that a Z134 will not bolt up to a TO20/TO30 transmission, but check out the link to this TO30 for sale on Ebay.. That is definitely a Z134 engine in what looks to be a TO30. The doglegs look like they are from a TO35 as well.

Are we sure that isn"t a TO-35? It"s definetly not a Z129 engine. Look at the oil filter and the oil fill in the timing cover. You can"t see the transmission cover to see whether it"s a single stick or the "dual stick" of the TO-35.
 
Take a look at the engine to transmission connect flange in the 2nd picture. There is clearly a bolt hole just below the battery box on the engine that doesn"t have a corresponding hole on the bell housing flange.
 
Sorry, that was a typo. Meant to be Z134. The oil filter placement plus the power steering cover on the front left makes it a Z134. You can see the TO30 style neutral safety switch on the transmission bell housing so it must be a TO20/TO30 transmission.

Looks like it has a manifold from a F40 or MF50.

Yes, we have no bananas... sorta thing.
They WILL bolt to each other, but, who wants to waste a 134 on a 30 arsend? I don't believe a Perkins or 23C will fit the 30 cause of the starter locations.

That's quite the hybrid looking thing.......probably done by someone like me who didn't listen when someone told 'em it couldn't be done.
 
I bet the whole ad is bogus. I don't think there is an oasis within 300 miles of Vegas that looks like that. If there was... I'd live there!
As soon as Inno comes down and buys that 23C mosquito chaser, I will use a hollow TO30 block to tie together the 202's X arsend and the X diesel's front end, just so's the chassis? pieces? can roll around on all 4...
