I can confirm that they will FIT in the block
of an M151A2, but will the plug wires
WILL NOT and have no hope of fitting
the plugs.

So now Im stuck with 8 of the damn things,
but on the bright side (if there is one) I only
paid 3 bucks apiece for them...but was completly
hosed on the shipping.

Now I know the meaning of "Buyer Beware"

Thank you Mr. Naglich!
