Turbo Change Question

[Mark & Cath]

Hi,

 

I am in the process of changing the turbo on our 2001 115 BHP Galaxy. I haven't got a ramp so I have had to do it the hard way, inlet manifold off first and then work from the top and through the drivers wheel arch.

 

Anyway it is off now and I have sourced replacement from a local breakers but it is different on the mount underneath the turbo. The part numbers are 713672 & 713673. The original turbo bolted sideways onto a L bracket and a spacer that was in turn bolted to the engine block, the new turbo one looks like you throw the L bracket away and bolt the new turbo directly to the engine block.

 

Trouble is I can't get a good look at the situation and I want to check if I needed a new sized spacer, reuse the current spacer or just bolt the turbo directly to the block. I am sure it is perfectly obvious from underneath but working by feel from the top it is a little more tricky.

 

Thanks All.
