Subject:Re: Picture of AAZ or AHU turbo charger down pipe please?

2 different turbos were used on the AAZ motors AFAIK. I have one of each
vintage. The early ones used a square flange and evenly spaced bolt
pattern. The later ones used uneven spacing on the 4 turbo exhaust studs
and a curvy flange. The later flange still uses a round pipe lined up
with the turbo exhaust and the flange covers the waste gate area with
flat plate. Hope this helps, p-mail if more needed.
