The bellhousings are quite different. The 240 M46 bellhousing incorporates the front bearing retainer and seal while the original M40 has a separate piece for those functions--the shape/size is different too. Other posters have shown modified M46 bellhousings, cut and rewelded for upright use. First gear in the M46 would not be very favorable with the already low rear axle ratio in the 120. The M40/41 has a nice useful long first gear. You're probably better off finding an M41.
