Most diesel engines have an SAE bolt pattern on the back of the block,
there
are several different sizes depending on the size/power of the engine; #1
is
the largest, #2 next smaller, etc.
If you're lucky the Detroit might have the same sae pattern (#5?) as the
5.9
***mins, if so the bellhousing from the ***mins might be used to mate the
NV4500 to the Detroit.
