In fairness thinking about it it may be possible to spin the inlets round. It would require some thinking about but "may" be possible and need some one off bits. I suppose you'd need to measure up and see how it can fit you might have enough room to keep it as is and re route a longer intake pipe to the tb.

As I said you could do with an engine hung in place on a crane or the like to see where the mounts will go and see how close the tb is to the bulk head.

If you do it go for a 200 engine as those of us with 24s spend our time bolting 200 bits on and chasing 200 power anyway hth
