You'd need an apaptor or new exhaust manifold to run it. T-4 flange.
They list it as a 700 hp turbo- a bit big for ya methinks.

The horsepower ratings garrett has on their website are usually ratings for gas powered vehicles.
The GT40 is more like a 500hp turbo.
A GT42 is more along the lines of a 600-700hp turbo on a diesel.

yeah the gt42 is more than im after . yeah i would guess the gt40 should support some were in the 500hp range . the set up other than that would be a comp or drag and a set of 150hp sticks . and a built auto .

The general rule of thumb when converting gasser HP turbo ratings is to multiply the gas rating by ~70% to get the diesel rating. Gasser rated 700hp 'charger flows ~70lb/min and this charger should support 450-500HP on a diesel.
For reference, a stock HX35 @ 21psi @ 120F IAT @ 3200rpm @ 350HP is producing roughly 55.36700035 lb/min.
