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?

the piece he gave me is pretty big, never mind the halfcircle missing, that will prob get chopped off.

Notice how thick it is, im going to have to mill it, so its flush.

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

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