Can a Center Section be rotated??

We began to test fit my buddy's SOHC turbo project tonight, and I had to rotate the compressor housing b/c it was hitting the block... Then we bolted it up to the manifold, and i noticed that the drain fitting is pointed sideways...

Can I unbolt the center section and spin it? Do I just undo the bolts and spin it without pulling it all apart or is there something else that i have to do?

It can be rotated, loosen the bolts on both the comrpessor and turbine sides and you'll be able to move it however is convenient.

You have to rotate the compressor housing and also the exhaust housing.

Damn, you beat me to it!
