Not off the top of my head but I will measure mine either at lunchtime or this evening.
No doubt someone will be along soon with the correct information to hand

Off the top of my head it's 26" (660mm) from rocker box to bottom of sump.
And from that you can chop about 25mm from the sump/oil pickup pipe (maybe slightly more.
If your MCSorley chassis is 2" higher (+442 is 4" longer, 4" wider and 2" taller isn't it?) then you just about be ok
with normal Locost height bodywork I think.
HTH,
James
EDIT: I can now *just* clear the cam pulley with a 25mm taller chassis and the GTS bodywork which is about 19mm taller than their Locost stuff.

I ran across a pic showing dimensions for several engines from a locost website. I hope I dont offend anyone by not giving credit but I dont remember
where I found it. I have attached it, or tried to attach it below. I hope this helps. If there are any discrepencies please let everyone know. I
measured a Mazda Miata (MX-5) at about 23.5" tall.
