I would try & find a junk yard that had a 123 & a 190 & do some measuring.
Would the sump clear the crossmember?
width of motor mount locations
How far back are the motor mounts from the radiator
does the starter motor clear the steering box
is the back gearbox mount in the right place
tail shafts are easier to shorten than lengthen

Just a few things I would consider. Hope that helps
