Using spacers between engine and mower deck

Hi,

I bought a new engine (173cc predator) to replace the one that died on my very old Craftmans (model 917-380231) push mower. The problem is that the shaft of the new engine is 2" longer than that of the old engine. Can I use 2" metal spacers between the engine and the mower deck to compensate for the longer shaft? Is a 2" gap unsafe (do I risk get hit by rocks or other debris that is projected through the gap by the blade?)

Thanks for any help

JB
