Here's why:
* Bell Housing Design: Bell housings are specifically designed to match the engine block and transmission. The bolt patterns, dimensions, and mounting points are all unique to the engine type.
* Engine Configurations: 4-cylinder engines and V6 engines have different cylinder configurations and mounting positions, resulting in different bolt patterns and alignment.
* Transmission Compatibility: Even if the bell housings were compatible, the transmissions designed for 4-cylinder engines are typically not compatible with V6 engines due to power and torque differences.
Therefore, directly bolting a 4-cylinder Ford engine to a V6 bell housing is not possible. You would need a specific 4-cylinder bell housing and a transmission compatible with the engine to make it work.
