this is the only thing i found and i dont realy get it

 

what don't you get about it?
they do have a list of most OEM turbo cars and the turbo nomenclature to it.
the most common turbos used are t25 of the DSM cars later models, 14B DSM cars earlier models, T3 very common, domestic and imports. and KKK turbos of the euro cars.

um thats all i can think of newbie.

all fords and merkurs use a t3 manifold however since you have a sohc i recommend checking this site out mad info on how to rig your sohc with the stock manifold to use a flange and bolt a dsm turbo.,

there you go
later

 

does anyone know what the numbers on that site (junkyard turbo list) mean?

i.e. GAR TB0344 would that be smaller than GAR TB0359 I would assume?

would it be a t3 /w 44 mm compressor?

 

Check these out, as far as where you can get them from (and search!)

Nope...it doesn't mean anything. It's just a model number. The only thing you know about a Garrett TB03xx is that it is a Garrett T3 turbo of some size.

actualy it is goin onto a ls motor hence why iam looking for a t3 (i know i can get a manifold for it)but thanks for actualy helping
mike

 

You really should consider looking into T3/T4's as well, as they have the same flange for the manifolds as the T3's (which makes sense, considering that the "T3" part of a "T3/T4" turbo is the turbine housing), and will generally make better high end power. Do a search, there's LOTS on this in past threads

 

i always thought it was the other way around....t4 was the houseing and the turbine was t3...havin a smaller turbine would make it spool quicker with the potential to flow more air with a bigger housing

 

That's what I said, in a T3/T4 the compressor is from a T4 and the Turbine is from a T3
