Hello,i do Think that your Gt6041 is a tad bigger in compressor inducer Though!

Theres a few sizes in the 6041 , the industrial ones are often 98mm inducered comp with the 113 mm turb exducer , the "performance" one has the 106 mm inducer and a 119 mm turb exd .

Going to be interesting to construct a duct between this turbo flange and a round combustor...I thought the T6 was Difficult, this is even worse.... |

yeah that is not the most convenient shape!
If you measure the total length of the edge you can find the equivalent diameter round tube and then probably squash / hammer it into shape pretty well.
I've done some irregular shaped turbo outlet dump pipes this way before with good success.

Been looking at this with the oiling system...Everyone says to put oil pressure gage by turbo oil inlet....a VERY hot place near the turbine housing..anyone any ideas?
Cheers/Stephan

Hi Stephan
Its only recommended the oil pressure pickup is placed there because of uncertainties about pressure drop in the delivery plumbing , but if you use 1/2"- 12mm OD metal tubing you can fit the pressure sensor away from the turbo .
As I use manual gauges , a metal tee piece at the turbo oil inlet and metal tubing going from the tee piece to gauge isn't a problem
Cheers
John
