I think Don covers this somewhere on his website, but the A4 flathead four-cylinder engine is marine-only. There are several tractor and forklift engines out there with similar designs, after all there are not too many ways of getting the job done with four cylinders and a flat head, but they don't have the exact shape of the A4 mounts, nor are they cast out of the same high-nickel, rust resistant steel. Some of the ignition and fuel components are usable across many such engines (for example I don't think the Zenith carb is A4-specific).
