Thanks

I never found it online either, had to call Tial and have a distributor order via call. Most distributors couldn't find the PN either. Very odd situation on that part.

Apparently Broadfoot racing sold them or a version of. Might still be available.

I bought a Tial from Broadfoot a few years ago. Took awhile to get here, and I ended up having to shave some of the one edge down to get it to properly clear the steering knuckle.

Call TiAl directly, ask for the turbo mount and they'll ship to you. At least that worked for me twice over the past 15 yrs.

What has to be done to use this mount to fit a GT35, just clearancing and some cutting? I know it was designed initially to fit a GT30 based turbo but something CEP used to do and resell.

Albert Broadfoot has some pictures on his website (www.broadfootracing.com) showing the machining necessary for the oil drain and on the side toward the firewall where machining is needed to allow the steering shaft to clear. In addition, I put a 3/8" spacer between the back plate and the arm supporting the turbo to allow a larger hot housing to clear the balance shaft cover.

I may have one for sale, used but still fully functional and no issues, but if I remember correctly you will have to modify your banjo bolt and weld on a -10 male fitting to it

Book mark this thread if you think you may ever need this Tial item.

Their website doesn't reference it - but an email confirmed its still a valid pn.
