David,
My Notes suggest a garret TO4E -50; 50 trim compressor - P Trim  exhaust with modified 1.3 AR Ratio housing.
Some other notes in red - .6  AR air inlet. .96 AR Exhaust.
Does that help in any way?

Went flying and camping this weekend with some of the SoCal Vans Air Force.  Gave rides to some college students bulding an RV-7 and camped overnight.  Did some form flights and flat-hatting over the dunes of pizmo beach.  Here are the pictures..
 
Drilled a 1/4 inch hole in the intake but still get what seems to be compressor surge - hole size it going to get bigger until I can get the right compressor on there - which I have decided is a TO4E "40".  Will keep the 60-1 around until I get the engine ported....
 
Still, able to cruise around at 170 KTAS and keep up (almost) with the 180 h.p. lyc guys.
