hi there,
which ones do you mean for (turbo to inlet manifold gasket), as i have about 5 elbows and 1metre of pipe, and an intercooler, oh and a carb in this discription.
You may mean turbo to exaust manifold.
Turbo elbow T3 would be Avonbar i guess, unless other peeps on here can say different.
I hope it helps my man,

Turbo to inlet manifold doesn't make sense.

If you mean turbo to exhaust manifold (the rectangular one) they are identical to the sierra cossie T3 one which you can get off eBay alot cheaper than buying one listed for the Metro T3.

The turbo to elbow one (3 bolt), seems like only Avonbar now. I've been down Unipart with both original and more recent part numbers and even searching their old paper catalogues they couldn't find either number listed anymore.

Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ???

there's always the option of making your own from some copper sheet

I also have a set of turbo gaskets that I'm unlikely to use sat waiting for a loving home.
