Yeah very similar it was Greg at Performance Car Parts who had a QP engine and although very similar lots of differences as the Coupe a different animal.Insurmountable differences?
I bought a 4.0 engine for a jaguar XK8 that came out of an XJ8, everything bar the block & heads had to be swapped over, cams were different, manifolds, sump, big job but doable
Having said that the 4200 engines seem reliable so not fast sellers, I'd think a decent offer to the seller of any engine for sale would probably result in a purchase but having bought an engine on a pallet once I wouldn't do it again unless I'd seen it running
This BMW engine I bought on a pallet didn't go so well
I didn't investigate further as I bought a new oil water pump unit and saved my car.
