Dodge t3 Flange
 
Bought a t3 turbo off ebay thinking the flange was the normal t3 flange, well come to find out its actually a dodge t3 flange from like a daytona or something...

well anyway I bought a HF manifold as well as a t3 to HF mani from BMC all to find out that all the stuff doesnt even line up.

So Im wondering if anyone has ideas on how to fab it all up or even know?

BMC does sell the right plate that you need.

They sell the correct flange, don't think they have an adapter plate though.

yeah theres no adaptor plates for em, someone on another forum was saying line everything up and then just weld it..dunno if that'd work...plus some of the bolts for the HF go into the turbo (run into the flange)

redrill the dodge flange to bolt it onto a regular T3 flange. Thats your best bet

you have to grind the turbine housing and drill 2 new holes I'm pretty sure.

Thats the least of your problems though. You also need to make a new 5-bolt flange for the outlet. Its not the same as a mercedes or ford/svo style. Its tighter than ----, and won't allow for much beyond a 2" dp, unless you don't mind running w/o 1 or 2 bolts. The turbo will bolt up fine to a volvo or saab housing, assuming its the .48 t3 that you find.

ask bmc nicely I have a feeling he sold these plates and still can make them. He has made a bunch that arent on his site. Itll proably cost ya a couple bucks more for his time but be nice and have a nice bolt on affair.
