In this picture the bellhousing is called the "clutch housing"

Keep in mind the gas and diesel T19s had different 1st gear ratios. Have you considered changing over to a ZF5 speed.

The T 19 bolts to a bell housing.
All the rest of the transmissions have integral bell housings made on the transmission case.
That fact makes the T 19 the only transmission you can swap between a diesel and gas engine without modifications to the transmission.
A 460 gas engine is close, but it will not bolt up.

I have the t-19 in my 86 6.9. For the most part it is ok. Pulling a load on the flats, it starts off ok.
But if you are on a hill, you have to play with the clutch to get her rolling.
I have the 3:55 Differential. With the 4:10 Differential it would probably get rolling ok.
The t-19 has the high first gear.
The t-18 has the low (granny low) first gear.

I do have a 3 speed Brownie I would like to install. Deep under, Direct and OD.
Picked it up with all the drive lines, and shifter for $275.
Problem is the front fuel tank it a foot too long with standard Cab.

And on mine there already isn't much room between the transfer case and the fuel tank so I know exactly what your talking about. I guess you can remove it and go with that large bronco rear tank everyone loves.
