there is some variations with most all housings, mostly port timing. if you ported the housings then most will work in any application but you have to remember that iron's for n/a front and rear are 6 port, the middle iron should work but would need a hole tapped in some applications for the center intake manifold bolt to work for a turbo. if you use n/a rotor housings then you need to do a few things to make them compatible, first is removing the diffuser and drilling a coolant passage for the turbo.
keep your rotating assemblies matched though, if you change anything then you should ask if you can swap rotors or balancer, etc..
