Not as much of a problem for a ball bearing, but keep in mind the pump may actually pose a restriction, how much boost will you be running?
Also I thought your new turbo was a gt35, what is your OLD turbo.

i was assured that my drain position and the sump will be fine, but I agree, I would like to redo all those bolts and reclock as well, just worried about a possible outcome. I can only imagine how much a pain in the ass it will be though, i'm not even sure its doable really....those bolts are not in a position you could get a drill to them to drill them out. If they all snap off and I cant get them out i'm screwed and will need to buy a new turbo.
the old turbo was a sc60-1 HiFi journal bearing
