Well I can tell you I have found data that says the small block is 21 7/8 inches from the water pump face to the rear block face but the big block data for the same measurement seems scarce. There is lots of places measuring the BB from the rear face to the outside of the long or short water pump but i don't think that is wheat you are looking for. By looking at my BB palte vs my SB plate i would guess about 3 1/2 inches more for the BB Hope that helps. If you looking for exact someone may have to measure a BB.

Hi . Thanks for that. I didn't think the difference was that much. The length I am looking for would be from front to rear mounting plates (when used) My new toy has Tabs welded on for (I think) a BB. Since I will for the time being run an SB , I wondered what sort of adapter brackets would be needed. I don't really want to remove/relocate the tabs , just 'in case' I decide to throw in a BB ;D ;D ;D
