Wastegate location.......

[Chuck Leeper]

Has anyone used a turbine hsg mount location for the wastegate?
Due to space limitations, and extended labor/material costs, I'm interested in trying such...
NE good, bad, evil experiences?????????

Unfortunately, they are for twins only. This is a single system......Thanks for the HU.

seems to me back some yrs ,a turbine housing was used with the gate mount on the housing itself!! mount pointed upwards at around a 120* from flange face.

from memory, where it was mounted it could bleed off E/P part way from the turbine snail. with a new hsg you could weld to it with new weld tech stuff.

but you would ask, i cant quite remember who had it.

i have some old turbo books, i will take a look.

AIRC, I had a TE60 I got from Jack C. It had the gate pad on the snail. It was blocked off, and used an internal gate.
I may try to machine and weld a pad onto a hsg. NE1 have some ideas as to what to use to weld it?? [I have TIG and MIG.]
