99181, t3/t4 gasket, any stock cars have them?
Posted by turbo8u, Feb-14-07 02:10 PM
I need the gasket from my turbo to manifold, but dont want to wait for shipping and all that. Do any stock turbos that you know of have a t3/t4 configuration? Im thinking a supra? Ill just get it from a parts store.

Any help is appreciated.

For some reason i think the SVO had a t3 style flange. Not sure though.

Edit: Yes it is a t3 turbo

Edit: if you get in a pinch try a ford dealer and ask them if they have a 01 ford powerstroke turbo inlet gasket. By the looks of the last one I looked at, I would venture to say it was a t3 or t4 flange.

I have previously bought a stamped stainless steel T3 gasket from the Ford dealer. I told them it was for a 1986 Thunderbird turbocoupe. That had a 2.3l four with T3 turbo. Some places will have it in stock and it will be about $7.

The engine in my 280Z from a 1982 280ZX Turbo has a T3 gasket. It also has bolt retainer clips so they bolt don't rattle out.

RRE sells T3 gaskets also
