Yeah, I run a GT67 and it fits on the flange just fine.
I don't have pictures yet as I have not welded on the flange yet. I have it ready to though, and I think it is about 10 degress. I will measure it exactly after I weld it on. I am needing to clock it away from the distributor, but I need to be careful not to get in the way of the ABS. For you SC300 guys, the ABS won't be an issues.
I just put my engine on the stand on saturday ready to drop in some lower compression pistons so I can run 26psi. Hope to have it going again by the end of the month.

LOL.. get a move on!!
I have mine back in and running now (albeit the GTE motor) and I already have about 3500 miles on the rebuild. I had a TON of Front Main Seal issues after the rebuild.. I was getting fed up then i realized I wasnt alone (8+ page thread on SF..) knock on wood, it is all good right now. 333 rwp and 296tq at 14 psi. No more boost until I get something reliable to eliminate boost cut.

Hey man, gimmie a break. I just did a 1.9 VW TDI swap into a samuria(60 hours) and built a flow bench(70 hours) That is 130 hours since mid Mid February and I still have a full time job, a wife and a little baby.
I did get the crank and the pitons on. Now I just have to finish my head work, but I need to do a little more calibration on the flow bench, and a fabbed up a pitot tube so I can measure port velocity. I really would like to get another 10 cfm out of this thing. That would put me up over 245 cfm with stock lift and stock valves. Stock head barely gets over 200cfm.

My overall goal is to hit 245 with keeping my low lift numbers the same as stock, or better.

I have done quite a bit of bowl work, and blended in the seats. I also opend up the lower intake manifold which has helped quite a bit for the high lift numbers, although I did loose a little low lift flow. I still have quite a bit of experimenting to do with the manifold and port design.

Oh goodie. I just hit my mark of 240cfm in 2 cylindars. Not to get the rest. I am not really all that great at this, in fact, I have come to realization that I SUCK at porting. I know there is at least another 10 cfm just waiting, but I will never get that, at least not right now anyway.

props to to you man.. i am sorry to say that i wouldnt even know where to start.
as far as my setup goes, i'm going to do a re-design on the hot side intercooler plumbing here soon, y the hot pipes before they enter the tank, instead of mixing inside it like they do now. looks cool, but i think i have some surge and cavitation in the hot side end tank. i'm also switching to a procharger crossflow intercooler i have laying around too.. from a mustang gt kit that i built a big fmic system for.
keep the info coming bro.. sounds like you really have your hands full

Neither did it. In January I started porting, not really knowing much(in fact I made a couple mistakes), by mid March, I had build a flow bench, and have learned quite a bit more about porting. It is fun, but definatly the most time consuming part of this project. I have well over 25 hours into this one head, and I will probably have pretty close to 50 hours by the time I am done. But that 50 hours will hopefully give me an extra 50-75hp at max boost, with the ablility to easily get 1000rwhp, not that I am trying to get that.

Wow, can't believe this was that long ago.
This was my absolute al time favorite car. I have had several high power MKIV's, but I enjoyed driving this more. Love sleepers

Ended up selling the GS and worked on a drag MKIII for awhile. Sold that a few weeks ago and I have retired from car stuff and move to boat stuff. I still have the flowbench, and is also currently for sale.
