Default Turbo question

THis is probably a goofy question but I will ask anyway. What if a guy had a turbo off a diesel engine just laying around, would you be able to use it on a gas burner? Thought I would ask because a buddy of mine has a truck shop and said he has all kinds of turbos laying around some had internal wastegates and so forth. Said I could use whatever he had so.... thought if they would work I would go to town

I'm not a expert by anymeans... But I think the turbo off of cummins is a bw s400... A lot of people of this board have used them. Other than that.. I dunno.
