It will not. I know for sure.

The angle of both turbo's is different from the centerline. This is why some people have to grind the hell out of their block to fit the turbo on. Some manifolds were designed a 5 bolt turbo, like drag etc.....other manifolds like a max-rev were designed around a 4 bolt configuration.

The housing will hit the exhaust wheel.

PS...the wheel is also a determining factor if a housing will fit or not. It has to be the same stage wheel.
