This is a good question.

It's something that I've been curious about myself? What housings (rotor/side) are compatiable interchangable Anyone ever look into this?

I have a 87 Turbo II motor that I'm working myself that may need a new intermedate housing. What, or which intermedate housings can I popossiblese in place of the ororiginaltock one?

Thanks PK797
