So i think i have concluded on the manifolds i want to use, just may end up using a gto alternator bracket if i can fit it, and use the ls4 front manifold on the passenger side, and maybe a modified 6.0 truck manifold on the other, either way both sides id weld a v band fitting on so i could clock things at better angles.. This way the hot side piping can run directly out forward with a shorter charge path IMO and i can just jig up the union in front of either the water pump (if there is room between my radiator), or off to the drivers side more and just end up doing a back door setup from the turbo clocked directly into the end tank of the intercooler on the passengers side..
Like i have it setting here just into the opposite side so the downpipe wouldnt have to clear the column and so forth..Probably just do the bov on the other end tank, and have a clean pipe coming out of the radiator support directly beside the radiator up and into the tb.
With the particular radiator i am going to use(copped it out of my rx7 im parting with), i have a 25"x21" radiator as opposed to the nearly 35"x21" stock truck radiator.
Now i dont know if this is enough radiator? But it NEVER gave me problems in other setups with these motors? Perhaps with the added weight and towing with the truck this entire concept is a dumbass idea, lol..
heres some different setups..
The ls4 front manifold on the drivers side...
The ls4 front manifold on the passenger side
either way like a nut job im hard at work in my lab at 343 am, so i better get my ass back to work here.. more to come..
