I'll have to get the pics later because I am heading out the door (should have done it this afternoon) for a couple of days. Thanks all.

That's where it is.
All he needs to do is pull one of the compressor clocking bolts (13MM atf) - 5 will suffice.

When I put my T3/T04E in I had a the same problem. I had to play with the clocking a little bit and eventually just took a die grinder and ground down a little bit right around where it hit and it fit right in.

I had to do exactly that to get mine to fit. If I remember right I also had to grind a little of the pedastol away too.

Thanks you guys for the tips, I ended up grinding down one of the housing bolts and having my wife pry on the turbo while I tried to line up the mounting holes. It finally fit. I have pics that I will post later. Some with the wife under the car. I'm such a lucky guy!

my wife came in the garage one day, I was on the creeper. I had a bit of grease on me, a bit of sweat, looked at her real sweet and said, "want to roll around a bit?" She took the groceries and went inside.

What can I say? It was the coolest thing I have ever seen. Neighbors did look at us kind of funny. As soon as I get back home, I'm posting pics so you guys can be jealous.

My wife pried up (lifted) a chevy 350 in a pickup for me so I could remove the oil pan.

A SMART girl knows a hobby tendency that keeps her man out of trouble (other panties) when she sees one.
