6.7 Bellhousing Pattern
Searched and found conflicting info, can someone clear this up for me I have very limited interaction with the 6.7:
Does the 6.7 use the modular bellhousing pattern such as the 6.0 and 6.4?
There are several threads online where people claim it as the SAE bolt pattern.
Thanks.

As you can see, the pattern on this engine is circular shaped, nothing even remotely close to the seven bolt bellhousing pattern used by the 4.6/5.4/6.8 and 5.0/6.2 gas engines

Believe it or not, the Ford Workshop Manual does have service procedures for a manual transmission for the 2011 to 2016 (and even 2017) Super Duty trucks. However, it's not a six speed manual. Only a five speed, and I believe sold only on trucks in the South Americas and only with the 6.2L gas engine.

Thanks for the information.
What about the 6.7 used in "medium duty" applications. Do they all have a Ford transmission behind them? Like you mentioned earlier, usually EATON would have a manual trans that would fit the bill.
Also on the engine electronics, has anyone successfully transplanted a 6.7 into another project and built their own wiring harness yet?
Thanks.

Ya your right on the 6.2 V8 and 5 speed, this is right off of Ford Mexico website. Very interesting. Only comes in the F350, the Mexican 450 and 550 you get the 6.8 or 6.7.

Lead foot diesel in Monroe Ga has a 6.7 with a zf6 behind it. Pretty sure it's a 2.5 class pulling truck. It can be done with time and money. How long that zf will live, who knows. They are tough units but even the a stock 6.7 is past the designed input torque rating. They must have a decent service factor incorporated into the design which is likely more than 2.5 times the torque rating being they are still holding up to some of these tuned trucks.
