You could bolt the entire ZS172MM engine in the Sierra's frame, but you would have problems with the exhaust header. Personally, I wouldn't want to mess with it. Because the GS250 engine has a larger bore, you can't put the smaller cylinder head of the TW200/Sierra on the ZS172MM engine.

The only real issue that comes into play with the SBC is that the FOE is such that the valves are shrouded with anything less than a 4" bore, but the engine will still run properly. A larger bore in the Zong engine would give the valves even more space. I doubt that the cylinder volume is dissimilar between the two heads. As long as the dowels line up, I can't see a problem.
