azwood, please post, as you have time, a complete set of dimensions on the turbine wheel. Inducer, exducer, shaft diameter, number of blades and the axial inducer tip length. On the scroll post the A/R if you can see a number and the size of the inlet flange. On the IGV - axial dimensions, inside and outside diameter and the number of airfoils. A photo of the IGV face will give us a idea of the angles. Any part numbers, serial numbers etc will also help define your treasure. Since you have most of the pieces a working power turbine can be created from the ashes like the Phoenix.
Thanks, Ron

I think it was missing something between the wheel and the vain section because there's a big gap it may have had vvg or something anyway I'd like to just make a new housing and vain section to suit my needs hopefully the wheels going to be OK for my use

This is what a compressor and turbine wheels look like out of a locomotive turbo charger From what I've seen from your posts, you must have a super collection of all things turbine. ...Plus a whole lot more. If there was a Museum of Turbines they would probably want to talk with you.
