hey,
i have a westy 82 with a 1.6 n/a and i swap for a 1.9td.
I have a k14 turbo and i don't think it's possible to take rotate the turbo for the oil return hose because i have the wastegate in way if a rotate 45 degrees.

What do you do with a k14 with a west at 50 degree??

thanks
Laurent

When I ran a K14 I actually re-tapped the center cartridge to the closest NPT thread and then got a 45° fitting from fittingsandadapters.com. Unfortunately that requires dismantling of the turbo and a greased tap.
