Default Transmission bell housings?

I heard that most gm transmissions will bolt to most gm engines. Say you have a 2.8 liter s10 and you want to put in a 5.7 liter v8. Does the 2.8 liter have the same bolt pattern as the small block?

Default No

The cylinders from a 2.8 Liter are 60 degrees apart. The 4.3 liters are the same as a 350 which has an angle of 90 degrees. The 60 degree bellhousings are much narrower.
