Could anybody tell me what size to get for the turbo manifold studs (to mount to the head)? M? X ? also to mount the turbo to the manifold and the o2 housing to the turbo??? Thanks
M8 x 1.25 exhaust manifold to head
M8 x 1.25 turbine housing to O2 housing (on my 50 trim)
3/8" course - turbine to exhaust manifold
5/16" course - wastegate to exhaust manifold

Thanks .
So basically I need a 3/8 coarse to fix my problem. Are there any specs I should look out for? Know the size of the lock washer by chance?

Just as a future reference, I called AGP to get the info for the turbo to manifold bolts:
The old welded together log manifolds were M10x1.5 for the turbo bolts, and M8x1.25 for the wastegate bolts.
The cast manifold is 3/8x1 and 5/16x7/8 respectively.
my new cast mani has 10x1.5's on the turbo
No it doesn't. You can certainly jamb an M10 through the 3/8 holes and think it fits, but it doesn't and you will ruin the threads.
im telling you right now whn i got the mani i went thru a bolt bin to find the proper bolts to bolt my turbo down on it and the 10x1.5 was perfect...no american size even came close......i pieced together my whole kit and its a complete agp setup now except the oil feed which was made local

That's good to hear. I load the machines and I machine the manifolds here, and I know what taps are in the tool changer. You can believe what you want, but our cast manifolds have ALWAYS been 3/8 and 5/16.
