Bellhouseing pattern for a 7.8 6banger

I thought One of you big block guys might know if a ford desiel would bolt to any of the gas block bell housings. Im not talking the binder V-8, the ones Im interested in are the 6.6 and 7.8 inline sixes?

I have seen these motor but, not familiar with them. You might try posting this question in super duty and heavy trucks since this was a heavy truck motor.

No it will not bolt up. Bellhousing pattern is not even close to the same. I dont even think a 6.6 or 7.8 flywheel would fit in a gas bellhousing. May I ask what you are planning?
