If you can do it without changing the index of the wheels to the shaft, feel free. Mark how everything is indexed together.
Now that I think about it, where did you get the 57 trim? Is it from e-bay? If so, it's probably an SS Autochrome / Turbocalculator / Stone Racing turbo. I recall them having a 57 trim with a glued-together compressor housing. If you have one of those, use it as a decoration for a fishtank or something.

If you do, do it make ure you get a kit with the 360 Degree thrust bearing. Standard kits do not come with that and most likely yours wil have it since its one of the t3/t4 hybrids.
