Keep the turbo and put it on the AAZ - its attached to the manifold so theres no point taking it off.

Also, you may as well benefit from the new turbo yourself....

Hang on to the head at least of the old engine, if it looks reasonable

Sorry to hear about your engine Lloydy but if you do swap out for an AAZ - I'll take first dabs on the injectors. Christ I feel like a grave robber now!
