exhaust manifold needed

[dansam]

just came across a snag fitting a t34, took the old turbo off and completely forgot about the flange design on the 21's!
How does everyone get over this?? can it be machined down?
has anyone got one ready to go?
Any help would be great, was hoping to get it up and running this week lol

get it on the mill, a mate did mine for me.

Cant you get a flange cut to fir over the manifold protrusion so that the turbo sits onto a flat surface?

yeah thats what i was thinking Dan but i dont think i know anybody who can do stuff like that!!

 

[danb]

Any engineering place would be able to shave that down for you in a matter of minutes

yeah just spoke to a mate and he reckons he can sort it.

What Dan said.

Shouldn't cost to much.

I do have a spare that I can get machined if needed.

well just came in from stripping it all down, manifold came off with out much drama! no snapped studs which was a suprise and only managed to cut myself twice during the whole proccess lol must be a record :smile:
