do lincoln and ford Y blocks share the same bellhousing bolt pattern? what about the flywheel bolt pattern?

i'm looking for an alternative way to run a hydro behind a ford Y block. i know the 52 lincoln had a gm 4 speed hydramatic. was hoping i could use the torus bowl and/or flywheel on a ford. only other option is a B&M F5 adapter that adapts an olds style trans to a ford Y block.

thanks

Different bellhousing pattern and I'm pretty sure the flywheel pattern is different as well.

Adapters are available to run just about any transmission.  Do you already have the Hydro and just want to find something to use it with?

Different on both questions.
Lincolns are unique to themselves.

Just being nosey, but there's got to be an interesting project with a y block and a hydro. Going to share it?

FWIW, Dad had a Caddy with a hydro in a 49 Kaiser Manhattan. Shifted like a tank trans, which it was.
