The next logical step up in a 210-220 Air-Research turbo is a very small step, but nevertheless is configured to replace the old T0-4 V-band clamp compressor housing. Any Air-Research brand turbo that fits a 7030-40-45-50-60 will bolt right on and the exhaust will come out thru the hood in the same place. Now, don't think you're going to do this with a USED turbo. The 7000-series turbo must be "clocked" to fit backwards on the engine and you'll never get that accomplished on a used unit. So, go with a reman or new. Anything for even more performance has an off-center turbine shaft and will require everything to be different/changed including the hole in the hood unless you can fab up an elbow to meet the hood hole.

If you take any turbo and mount it around bass-ackwards, the oil lines and compressor outlet won't be aimed at where they now need to be. The center section and compressor housing need to be rotated (clocked) to get things pointed where they need to be. Unfortunately, the bolts on the exhaust housing will be rusted in place. The center section will be rusted in place. All this due to the exhaust heat over the years of use. Some turbos will be impossible to clock. Some might not be too bad with an experienced person and a torch to heat things. Just don't plan on it.
