Yes, but you will need a couple of other bits too.

sierra cvh

Ive have used the 1800 sierra cvh engine, so far so good, you will need to mod the sump and the top cover. As i have made chassis 4 inches wider and 4 inches longer i have also lifted the hight of the scuttle slightly this has helped. You will also have to make the transmission tunnell slightly wider to get the engine/box as far back as possable. I have also cut the side out of the starter motor housing to clear the chassis to get engine right back as far as possable. moving it this far back also means the gear stick is in a good position. You can also use the standard sierra engine mounts.
Hope this is of some help.
