don't quote me on this but I'm pretty sure our M42 4 cylinders sit a little closer to the firewall but I'm just basing that off visual comparison.

I also thought the mounting points on the subframe were the same. The mounts are different as the M42 ones have offset mounting points, whereas the 6's are inline.
