Engine Bay Specs

Hey all,

I'm wondering if there's any way to figure out the specs for the GE Fit engine bay. I know there's GD Fits running K20 swaps, but I don't know how much the GD bay varies from the GE. Anyone know where I could come across this info?

Basically, I want to know if all K20 engines will fit under the hood! I know, with certain amounts of fab work, any engine will fit, but I mean, within reason, minimal frame-cutting, will I have any problems with say, a K20z1, z3, a3, or any of them?

Thanks!

Yeah, shazaam, we gotta get together sometime so I can measure your engine bay, or compare that way! If a K20 fits in yours, it should prolly fit in mine, I'd guess.

from what i've heard, the k20 will fit into the GE bay easier than the GD bay.
