early banks turbo gaskets

[FordIDIot]

hey guys i need to remove my old non wastegated banks turbo. since its a t3 could i buy a simple turbo install kit for something like a ford svo turbo or dodge cummins turbo?

mostly need the exhaust flange and drain gasket.

You can buy those parts on eBay, they are pretty universal

Here is the banks install manual. Exploded drawing is at the front, then you have to scroll all the way to the end to find the part numbers. I printed it so I didn't have to do that. Just Google the part number, example: banks 93312 gasket set, and go from there. BTW the gasket set mentioned is $10 at Jeg's.com, I'm ordering it soon as I think my drain is leaking..

page 11 of the banks manual
B. Install the turbocharger on the turbine inlet casting
using four 3⁄8 – 24 stainless collet locknuts and four 3⁄8
AN washers. No gasket is used between the turbo and
the casting. The upper nut on the driver’s side can be
more easily accessed by reaching between the turbo
compressor cover and the firewall on the driver’s side.

thanks for the fast response guys. i do not have a sidewinder turbo kit. it is actually a "the turbo shop" kit with intercooler. it uses a older garret banks non wastegated turbo. it should use a normal MLS gasket.

can someone help me confirm if i need a gasket on the early banks turbo?

It will not hurt anything having it there, get one and run it.

Use the gasket, I have both that you need in stock if you need. 20.00 shipped, and 1/3 of that is shipping.
Shipping costs are stupid.
