Yes it fit without any modification. The only thing that was really a tight fit is the temp sensor on top of the Turbo. It is a TO4B Super V Compressor Housing. With my current dyno numbers, I kind of wish I would have went with the TO4E compressor housing. A friend of mine got 30 more RWHP with the TO4E housing. My RWHP on 95 octane pump gas was 290 and my friends was 320 both at 15psi. Then I had 333 RWHP @ 18psi and he made 369 RWHP @ 19psi. We each added 1 gallon of xylene to 3/4 tank of 95 octane. Of course he had to have some weld a new water line, fill his housing down and also file a little of the underside of his intake manifold.

Here's a pic of my cam cover. The car isn't back together so I don't have anything final yet(stupid head gasket). I'll post some cool pics when i'm all done though.

Cam Cover Powder Coat w/Polished letters $35 (25 + 10)
Intake Manifold $45
Cam Gear Cover Powder Coat w/Polished lines(Front and Back Pcs) $15 ($10 + $5)
Cross over pipe Ceramic Coat Outer and Inner $40
Small Turbo Downpip Ceramic Coat Outer and Inner $40
Ceramic Coat Turbo Hotside $50
Thermal Displacement Coat Turbo Coldside $50

I personally am not a great painter. If powder coating is done correctly, it looks awesome. IMO.
