Looks about right.I put a 4-53 in an IH 4X4 pickup,the engine compartment was very full. That was one very macho sounding and running pickup with the 2 cycle buzz and the screaming roots blower. Got real old if you had to listen to it on a long long trip.Turning that little engine up to it's 3000 rpm redline would produce a jet engine like scream from the blower and an exhaust sound that was like a 4 cylinder 4 cycle turning 6000 rpm,made people crank their heads around to take a look. The little 53 series is wide with the blower sticking out the side of the block,and tall because the sleeves/block have to be tall enough to fit that tall piston and long stroke and still uncover nearly 2 inches of intake ports at the bottom.
