Default clocking turbo questions

i have a dohc zc that i recently purchased a edelbrock kit except its upgraded with a precision gt2871r. but here is a pic


but my problem is that the turbos housing hits the spot on my block that holds the bracket for the o2 sensor wire.


exactly what do i do to clock the turbo? will it change where the wastegate actuator is mounted? how much can i move it because i would like to move it just enough to clear that point. thanks in advance!

simple answer, shave the block. Greddy kits have the same problem...

would that be better then just clocking the turbo? i would rather do that because i think it would mess up the intercooler piping route, unless i could move it just enough to clear the block. thanks again

Just shave the block down until it fits. Tons of people do that without any problems. That's the easiest way.
