Default Manual trans conversion

Alright been searching for an adapter kit or bell housing to mate a Muncie SM425 manual trans up to my L65. I don't have other trannys to play with and see if they fit, or else ill be doing it. SO my question is what other transmissions besides the 4L80-E fit the bolt pattern on the 6.5??? Is there a kit or a bell housing that will bolt up to the trans and engine or am i S.O.L and need to find another manual trans that will?
Thank you for your time and information

400 turbo is the same pattern as the 4L80E so them old Saginaw 3 and 4 speed would work maybe

Small/bigblock bellhousing is the same but often the block bolts are metric-keep the auto bellhousing bolts.
