Interestingly, that is how the induction of the 4.5L "baby" Duramax was going to be - a transverse configuration with the intake on the outside of the cylinder heads, but with the exhaust on the lifter valley side for a more compact routing of the exhaust for the turbo. And, yes, the Toro-Flow was not the Detroit Diesel platform.
