I'm using it on a 4 bolt SVO race block but still had to build all of the front end equipment mounts, pulleys, and idlers to reduce the overall length of things. Because the block requires an external oil pump the front end equipment got complicated and there will still have to be a dimple in the firewall for the a/c compressor pulley.

Were it not for the external oil pump there would have been lots of room with a single belt.
