Turbo Headers?
I know ls swaps in our trucks are getting very common and was wondering if there is any company's out there that are making turbo hot sides for our ls swapped c10s. I know I can have someone fab a set but looking to buy something already done. I did a Google search but didn't find anything. Have you guys heard of anything like this?

Re: Turbo Headers?
Lots out there, though I don't know about the quality. Here's a set for as low as $189, but they're generic:

Re: Turbo Headers?
I plan to cut and flip my truck manifolds for twin turbos. The Ebay turbo manifolds look slick, but they interfere with both the top mounted ac compressor on the passenger side, and alternator

Re: Turbo Headers?
I believe Holley has just released a new set of turbo manifolds at LS fest. I think speed INC also sells turbo headers. I see most people using stock truck manifolds and flipping them.

Re: Turbo Headers?
Hey guys. The new Hooker turbo manifold set was previewed at LS Fest a few weeks ago, but it won't be available for purchase before the end of the year. The passenger side manifold that was on display was only a 3D printed prototype as there's quite a bit of design engineering left to do before it's cut loose for production. From what I've heard, the price for a set of the bare manifolds will be $499.00.

Re: Turbo Headers?
I was able to get a couple of shots of the coming Hooker turbo manifolds on an engine today...the right side manifold is a 3D printed plastic prototype, which explains its white color. [IMG]

Re: Turbo Headers?
Man those are bad ass! I wonder how ground clearance is with the crossover going under the trans? Did they say when they would be available?
