Trying to make an HF->t25 adapter plate with pics
Hey guys,
First off, I know bout BMC and Wier, but after talking to some of the guys on at the HMT meet, I decided to go out to some machine shops and see how much it would be to get an adapter plate made. some said 100-200. I said ---- that but the last guy was a really nice guy and he actually said he would cut me a piece of aluminum for free, so I said sure! Now is aluminum going to work with the high temps? Im going to have to mill it to size. My friends dad has access to a CNC mill, so I made some templates. Now about bolts, I'm gonna need to tap some holes, anyone know what the thread size is on a T25 turbo? http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/8...hand4ie.th.jpg the piece he gave me is pretty big, never mind the halfcircle missing, that will prob get chopped off. http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/7...ness8wo.th.jpg Notice how thick it is, im going to have to mill it, so its flush. http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/5...ates9pq.th.jpg these are the templates I cut out of card board you can also see the pen for size ref. let me know what you guys thinks ~Adam |

keep the aluminum for a paper weight and find some steel.
