Default T34 Exhaust Housing

Does anyone have any pictures of a exhaust housing fitted to a T34 turbo?To

I have just tried to fit my turbo to my Area Six manifold and i can't get the bolts for the exhaust to face downwards

Here's what i have



Here's the problem




Need the housing to sit other way so studs point down so can fit down pipe

Is there another housing available for this turbo? If so what one?I

Can't you rotate it 180 degrees so the inlet is over the gearbox, exhaust flange looks like it will then point down between the gearbox and rad?

Any Cosworth one will do but depending on what size housing you want to use, probably the smaller .48 housing might be better as this is a better response as its smaller than a .63 housing.

As for fitting it, you need to take the cast housing complenty off so the core is showing and bolt the Cosworth housing on and spin it round to where you want it and line it up then tighten it all up.

May be better calling a tuning company to get advice off them.
