Where to find hf manifold T-25 adapter plate (D16)?

I'm looking to get a D16a and put a T-25 turbo on it. I have the HF manifold already from a friend, but now I just need to find the adapter plate to mount it properly. Does anyone know where I can purchase one of these (other than the 1 i saw on e-bay)? Or even instructions or a template to make one? Any help is greaty appreciated.

Hey, the best thing to do is, if you have got the resources, is to get the manifold gasket (for the turbo) and use it for a template. Next, you want to go to the local scrap yard and get a piece of quarter inch thick steel. Use the gasket to outline your template. Use a heavy duty ass hole saw (with some oil to lube) and get your holes right. A little small isn't bad cause you can always go bigger to make it fit, and check the manifold to get general measurements and then cut your steel with hole in it to fit for the manifold (you will definitely need a bandsaw or you will need to do some serious ass grinding depending on how oversize the piece is). Then you should weld (mig with argon gas) your new flange in place so there is one less spot to worry about leaking in the future, or you can use a good drill press and cut your mounting holes but then you'll need to use 2 gaskets.
