Maybe we can get this stickied @Robert @BuddytheReow 
While it may not be an every-single-day occurrence, it's frustrating to have picked out a PCB, built it, and then met with disappointment when it doesn't fit inside the nicely-powder-coated Gorva enclosures. Doubly so if you've already drilled the enclosure.
To hedge those frustrations, I'm starting this thread by scalping the efforts of @DGWVI from an older thread around the a similar topic.
I'll keep the initial post in the thread updated with whatever findings come later. Please don't post claims of fitment (or lack thereof) unless they're verified, ideally we'd want your fitment feedback from the real world, and not just from number crunching.
There's a mix of PedalPCB and other makers in here, but I'll highlight the PPCB ones. In the future we'll add the C65 and M45 to the list.

Here are some images of my 3D extrapolation of the datasheet of the S90 (the original S90 is smaller (by <1mm in some dimensions), so that's what this is modeled after. Hopefully this will make sense. Click to zoom. I'm offering this as a reference only and I assume no liability whatsoever. When in doubt, assume it won't fit.
The measurements were taking at "PCB depth," where a 90-degree 16mm pot would sit against the PCB. THIS IS NOT THE SAFE ZONE. This is simply what I measured wall-to-wall, based on my 3D model. The red cylinders reference the screw-mounting areas, as well as their depth, again, based on the drawings.
And here are some """"safe"""" PCB dimension examples. Again, just for reference
97mm x 80mm
100mm x 73mm
109mm x 70mm
As for PCBs that may theoretically fit, but sit under the screw mounts, you'll have to think about angled/tucked installation, etc.
