G159 to 148 swap

[LeeinGa]

I have a 1968 case backhoe with a G159B engine.(Getting Tired)
I found a good deal ($1,000)on a new remanufactured long block that is a 148B out of a dozer I was told.
Would this engine bolt up to what I have, and are all other parts carb, manifolds, starter, etc. will be able to use off the 159 for the 148?
Thanks
Lee

Hi,
Everything will work. Engines are same external measurements. Depending on age of both engines check oil filter location. Older engines the oil filter adapter bolts to right side of block. Later model engine the filter screwed directly on to front of block casting.
Best, Dennis..........
