I have used Crown housings on many cars over the years. Although there was  
no welding done on those, the early ones had an "adjustable" screw that, when  
tightened (lock-nut released, and stainless screw turned inwards) changed the  
effective discharge angle of the exhaust hitting the wheel. The later ones 
were  just fixed at a high A/R ratio. The housings were available for both early 
 (62-64) and late (65-66) turbos. You might look for one of those  housings.
