I have a set of TGP manifolds ported to match my 3500 heads, but I need a way to mate them to my GT35. other than finding a TGP crossover and cutting it up, does anyone know of a bolt on replacement flange for the TGP manifolds?

Won't a generic T2 to T3 adapter work? They're all over eBay. I think the stock TGP turbo is a GT25.'89 Firebird, 3500 Turbo, T56, 9-bolt/4.11

Ball and Socket flange? You could use V-Bands as well if you can weld it all up. I used a Vband flange for the turbo out-downpipe and they are nice. Only 1 bolt to tighten (which is a blessing in tight spaces) and they look slick and seal well.

I've yet to decide my action plan, but I have a couple of ideas on the matter.
1. have them welded, and then re machined flat.
2. make a set of logs when I pull the engine for the clutch and cam.
option 1 is easier, option 2 is better..."I am not what you so glibly call to be a civilized man. I have broken with society for reasons which I alone am able to appreciate. I am therefore not subject to it's stupid laws, and I ask you to never allude to them in my presence again."Comment

can you post a pic of how much your tgp logs are smaller then the D shaped ports of the 3500 heads? You did port your logs right? Pics?Comment

I'll see about getting pics, but right now, they are mounted to the engine, and it'll be a while before I have them off. I wouldn't recommend them for a gen 3 head."I am not what you so glibly call to be a civilized man. I have broken with society for reasons which I alone am able to appreciate.

Here's a pic of a stock tgp log vs stock 3500 rear manifold:

smaller diameter logs on a turbo is actually a good thing. Just don't go TOO small. Keeps velocity high and gets the turbo spooling up into boost a lot sooner....overall making more power.1996 Grand Prix | 3100v6 L82 | T04E-50 Turbo | Getrag 282 w/ EP LSD | SPEC-3 ClutchComment
