ford t3 flange not fitting ford t3
 
i bolted my "downpipe" on last night, well its just a 2.5" bend pointed at the ground for now, half the holes are off just a little, i even opened them up a little with a 3/8 drill bit

i ordered this one http://store.racing-solutions.org/t3oumistfl.html says its for ford/volvo t3 and my turbo is a ford 60/63

do i need a differnt one or what, i got 2 bolts on, top 2 closest to the outlet, and a 3rd one on top i had to cut the end off so its like a C with a large washer

Sounds like you have a Mercedes exhaust housing.

i think it says ford on it, and it came with the ford o2 housing and flapper..

If that's the case, he could have sent you a Mercedes flange by mistake.

I dunno mercedes from ford, but my understanding is that there are two sizes of that 5 bolt housing..

We only carry the 5 bolt ford housing flange.

if its 5.5 or so inches from the top to bottom bolt its the benz flange.

bmc hooked it up with a flange that fit great.
