Thanks fo rthe help!
I just ordered an oil line gasket, mounting gasket, plug for the solenoid hole, and a boost elbow. I can't wait to get it all installed and see how it pulls!

Big Blue, I looked around a bit for a S300, but found nothing in my price range. Hopefully this 351 works out. If it's too loose or beat up, it seems that I could rebuild it. We shall see when it arrives....

Got it all installed, works great, still need to continue tuning. Went on 3 trips so far, totalling about 9000 miles. I would say that the MPG is up at least 10%, the power and especially the throttel response are dramatiaclly improved.
I had to clock the center part of the turbo to line up the oil drain, but the two end housings had to stay lined up with each other so the waste gate controller would line up.
I made a 4"adapter that I welded to the exhaust pipe to clamp it right onto the turbo.
The outlet of the turbo did not line up with the inlet of the intercooler anymore, so I had to make a pipe with an angle and 2 elbows.
