Turbo swap question

Turbo swap question
My roommate has a turbo that came off his 99 3500. The turbo should be good because he swapped engines due to a block problem. Should I swap turbo's and put his on my 92. My truck is a daily driver and reliability is of the utmost importance. Also fuel mileage is very important. I am not sure what size housing my turbo has or exactly what his is. Any advice on how to tell what they are and if I should swap them would be appreciated.

he has an hx35 i beleave with a 12cm wastgated housing, would work well on your truck because you have a 5spd take some time to in large the wastegate, info in sticky
only thing thta might be different is the down pipe and 2 studs stay in the exhaust housing on his so you need to rmove them and drill the holes to fit you manifold.
