Default seeking saito engine 3-view

I'm looking for 3-views of a Saito 56 engine to help me plan a tightly cowled twin engine setup for a p38 I'm building.

Would anybody out there have something they could scan or photocopy for me? I'd be happy to pay postage.

I tried Horizon Hobby but they didn't have anything.
Their engine manual only contains a generic outline with some general dimensions. I'm looking for something more accurate.

As an alternative to 3-views, maybe somebody has an engine laying around they could lay down on a photocopy machine and take some copies?

Or even a cad file would be great.

Thanks guys/gals.

FYI the 45, 50 and 56 all have the same dimensions. If you can find any one of these you could see how it fits.

If you go to the following web site you can verify.

Default Saito

There was a guy on "The Other Site" at about the end of 2001 who was shipping out CAD and picture copies of various glow and electric motors. In the package was a Saito 120.

I would think you could run the below noted JPG though a graphic translator, and convert to a BitMap image. Then use the freeware raster/vector convertors to change into linework.

From there it can be resized to match the dimensions noted at the Saito site. Watch it though, the R/V convertors make it come out about 1500 inches across.
