K26 vs K27 size...?

Hi!

Does anyone know how much larger the ports are on a K27 turbo compared
to a K26? I've seen a photo of a K29. One would have to extend the
fenders to fit that thing. :)

What would a K27 measure up to in terms of Turbonetics/Garrett style
designation (eg. T3, T4, T78!)?

Final question: any leads on a junk K27? Just missed one on eBay. It had
a seized shaft, but all I really would be interested in is the front
plate, compressor wheel and housing. I can get them here, the helpful
guy at the turbo shop has so far tried to convince me twice to go for
the K27 front end. I just to look at pricing.
