GeneralWiggin - The only 2 housings that I have that are perfect are for a NA. Now the only difference that I can tell are that the exhaust port inserts are different. The NA housings have a little wing in it. My T2 housings are a little beat up around the edges and I probably would not use them. I have one more place to check out to see if I have anymore around. I can also see how hard it would be to swap out the exhaust inserts, but from what I remember, it is a pain in the ***.

They're usually fine to reuse in a street nonturbo engine, but not for something like a modded t2 or an FD. They have the noise diffusers in the exhaust, so you can either cut them out or swap sleeves entirely. The port itself is identical. Plug timing is different from 89+, and these do not have the casting above the T plug for the knock sensors. Required 4 oil injectors for lube.
87-88 turbo:
same as above, except with smooth exhaust port. Also they have an additional coolant passage where the LIM bolts up, on FC's this feeds water to the stock turbo through the LIM which has a drilled passage. To use this housing on a nonturbo engine or an FD engine you have to block off this coolant passage, usually by tapping and plugging.
...
yes, you can mix and match housings of all kinds, this is the beauty of 13B engines after 86. You can purpose build an engine for many different requirements because of this. You can do complete rotating assy swaps, change irons for different intake port configurations, or improvise out of necessity.
