Is THIS accurate? if so would swapping the 235 I have with one of the 4200 inline 6 engines be wise? I plan on this becoming my daily driver, would the mount line up? What would i need to do to prep for this? I am planning on getting a 700R4 tranny will that work with this a friend told me there are many variations of the 700R4 is that true?if so what would be the best automatic version to use for this application?

The 4200 is a good engine, but retrofitting it is neither cheap nor easy. Check this thread on the Inliners forum for some info and contacts.
