It fits a standard 7" x 19" cutout in a standard sewing machine table. You will need the table top, with the cutout and slot for a v-belt, k-legs frame with speed pedal and linkage, a knee lever kit, a back stop, an oil pan, a bobbin winder, a motor and thread stand.

I would recommend buying a servo motor, which is easier to control than a clutch. The SewPro 500GR, available from Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines, has a 2" pulley and 3:1 gear reduction built in. It bolts into the same 3 holes as a clutch motor, but usually sits 1 inch closer to the body. You are going to have to assemble everything, then use a thick tow rope to find the correct length of v-belt.
