I ran across this website while trying to find some T3 elbow to T3 turbo bolts .... prices were not too bad.

Still here .... working on the Hubble Space Telescope repair mission.
I'm planning to have one of the TC's back on the road by spring .... starting to get all the parts ready for installation.

Hey Carl, does that mean we will see you at Carlisle? Hope so, it's been awhile.

That's the plan. If the TC is not ready, I plan to be there this year .... seems like I've been missing out on a great time. Who's doing the grilling this year???

Dan and apron wearing was a given. The only question was whether he was cooking or not.
NO TC and NO headaches.

Back to the original topic. If anyone is interested in one of these turbos make sure you get the correct sized t3(.60/.63 or .48) and not one of the t3's with the smaller compressor wheels/housings(.42/.48).
NO TC and NO headaches.

Oh and BTW, if anyone doesn't know, the bolts going into the turbine outlet are M8 x 1.25, not sure on length exactly, I'm thinking 25 mm or so will work?

I found some bolts at work that work perfectly for the elbow. The ones I'm using are 1" long. Thanks
