you can weld on a T3 flange, I think boostboy posted a picture on here somewhere of a customer who did it...flanges are only like 20 bucks so I'd just do that if your looking for the cheap way :)

you can weld a new flange on there. See if you can borrow a Z31 turbo and just hold it up to the manifold to see if it clears everything.

im guessin around 250-300$ for one of our manifolds ... log style or tubular your choice i think log syle will be a cheaper alternative

i ran a (fwd) CA with a T3 flange welded onto the standard manifold for years and never had any problems with it. make sure the welder is experienced because cast is a little harder to weld.
