Answer: Yes; with less than an inch to spare. I had to remove the seats to get the extra 4 inches they took up even in the folded down state. Thanks very much to Gozer and Nutballchamp for getting me some accurate measurements.
I brought this Plus conversion home today. Cabinet has the usual 30 years worth of wear; game, controls and sounds work. The monitor has lots of burn, and a horizontal deflection issue. It will play okay for a while, but occasionally the width bounces around a bit, and it will jump to a single vertical line. I'll probably cap and reflow, then decide if it looks good enough to keep, or if I want a new monitor.
My plan for now is to restore to an all original Pacman, but with a 60-1 installed. I'll keep the original CP and boards on hand so that I'm always very close to being able to convert back to all original. That's how I'm reconciling the desire for authenticity with the wish to play more of the original classics.
