Some specs for the EM100

                 EM100
Cylinder bore           100 mm
Dry weight              296 lb.
Dimensions LxWxH (inches)               22.8 x 41.3 x 18.5
Horsepower              325 @ 3,500 rpm
Torque          664 lb.-ft @ 2,100 rpm
Power density           1.1 hp per lb.

Overkill HP, but will the block fit?

I assume their EM65 would be smaller (not having 2 or more engines
tandem via what I assume is some kind VC?)
