so yes, you speak with no real experience. I understand you have read a few forum posts and this makes you an expert. But unfortunately, you don't actually know.
whitedog76 actually had the correct number, yet you talked him away from it. He even posted pictures showing his confusion, and you still talked him down from his belief.

I actually said 34" sounded like a block/head measurement, which it is. 40" overall sounded like the measurement I took with my own eyes when I measured a 12v cummins for a swap.
so go ahead and plan for 34" length to install one. shouldnt need any of my input to make it work, you have the technical drawing you googled for! building with pictures is real building!
edit: your technical drawing shows 882mm for the block and 123mm for the accessories. thats 39.6" overall, PLUS FAN.
