The swap might mess with the weight distribution though.. its ok. You just need to find a 2300 ton counterweight.

Worked on a smaller Wart at a NG compressor station. The valves where as tall as I am, and the heads bigger than dinner plates. The guys working on it climbed into the cylinders to do adjustments. Very impressive machine.
