It should fit, IF your engine has front motor mounts. If not, there may be no way to support the engine with the newer bellhousing.

Why don't you just get the bearings your housing needs, remove the engine, bellhousing replace the bearing and put it all back together?

the point was to have a housing ready to go back in rt away.as id have to rent space to do this.so being as they charge by the day having 1 ready would mean i could be done faster. thanks for the advice.

Go to the "Volvo Penta Parts" link at the top of this page and check the PN for the housings for both engine. If the part numbers are the same, then the housings are the same. If they are different, it may not work.
