Default Turbo flange CAD library?

Is there any online collection of *.dxf files of different flanges pertaining to turbos?

Specifically, I am looking for T3 flanges, exhaust housing outlet flanges and whatnot, but a general collection, if such a thing exists, would be awesome.

Defintely isnt
When I needed them, I looked everywhere.
You will probably find one or two different turbo flanges, but dont expect more.

Not looking to make profit, Im looking to make a manifold and downpipe - and I need the *.dxf files to cut them on the laser cutter at work...

I remember seeing somewhere tech drawings of different garrett flanges, but i dont remember where now...oh, well, not hard to draw up my own, it just saves time to have the drawings.


LSD, you have a drawing of a straight T3 flange?

My god... It took me 2 minutes to find T3 sketches online using GIS.

Quit being lazy. :1

Take a gasket, input it into the computer, then cut away.

If you have a laser cutter at work, I assume you also have access to the hardware to make a new pattern.

Yeah, its a cnc laser, so you start with a dxf. Like I said, i can just draw them, but its a pita to measure the radii of the corners and whatnot. Plus, it doesnt exaclt look good to be measuring and drawing turbo parts while Im at my desk at work

If I cant find what I was looking for, thats fine, just figured it wouldnt hurt to ask.
