As title, can someone measure the bolt spacing and overall width of a caterham/westy gearboc mount for me please?

I need a narrower mount than the std type 9 one to get the engine back in the chassis when fitting the duratec. Looks like this may be the deciding factor on just how far back it ends up.

TIA

Overall width is 4 and three quarter inches or about 121mm.

Hole centre to hole centre is three and three quarter inches or 95mm.

This is from a caterham supplied one.

theres a picture I've uploaded in my archive of the item just in case you want to check it. I've tried to stick it in this message but I'm stuggling, I think my target is wrong.
