I'm going through the same fact finding session with an L-28 in a '71 510 wagon. Everyone I have talked to has said that the six is too long for the 510 engine bay so I would assume that
MAJOR surgery would be needed to fit in a 1200. If you were to cut out the firewall and transmission tunnel you could probably get it in the car. I'd bet that the shifter would wind up in
the back seat though. I'd try to find another vehicle that could use the "free" engines rather than cut up a 1200 that much. You are right though, a straight six would be a hoot! Have a
day. Tim
