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 ;D

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