Yep. The motor is 19" (over measured) from crank pulley to block/trans mount surface. There's just over 20" of space between the radiator fan and trans mount surface under the hood.
Even if I needed a bit more room, there's always slim fans and radiator mount modding that can get me another inch or two, as well as the trans mount being adjustable by about quarter of an inch or so.
I also bought solid mounts for the OEM engine and trans, which I'll be using in the swap as well. I need to look over a VW block and see what bosses I can use to mount the engine from the sides.
