Default T3 3-Bolt Discharge Flange

I am looking for a Steel T3 3-Bolt Discharge Flange for an Internal Wastegate setup. I can't seem to find the right flange for my turbo. I just purchased a flange and a gasket from ATPturbo.com and it was too small. The measurement from the center of each mounting hole to the next on the "small" flange and gasket is approx. 2.86". The diameter of the hole is approx .38". I need a flange that has the measurement of 3.37" from the center of each mounting hole and with the same diameter of .38" for each actual mounting hole. The outlet of the flange has to be 2.5". Does anyone know where I can get the flange that I described above. I have already emailed WeirRacing and BMCRace, but I just wanted to see if a vendor sells it so I don't have to wait to get the flange made, etc.

Also if this helps or not, I have the swingvalve housing ID numbers. Garrett M-3; PT-8.

Any help IS greatly appreciated. Thanks.

wierd...I thought I deleted this post. The reason for the deletion(if its a word) is because I found a site who sold the flange I needed. Here is the site if your intrested:

http://www.42draftdesigns.com/flanges.htm

scroll down to the 3-bolt, you will see it there for 30 dollars. Has the exact measurements too as well as my housing ID numbers. So, I am almost positive this is the right one.

I just got one from my local exhaust shop. They let me look through their 3 bolt flanges. It's a little bigger than the hole but the 3 bolts line up and it seals completely. Its like a 2.5" header collector flange.
