Even with a universal case, it might be easier/simpler/cheaper to buy a 
complete engine from Martin. That would mean that he doesn't have to tear it 
down and send you the parts.

Or you could drive the engine from the DDB for awhile, while you work over the 
universal engine and get it set up the way you want it.

I think it's always difficult to put yourself in a position where you have 
exactly one engine, you want to do some major work on it, and you have a 
deadline where it all has to be back in the car and running so you can use the 
car on some particular day. So I'm a big believer in having a "spare" which you 
can take your time with and then just do a swap when everything is really 
ready.
