What numbers did you put down with your truck mani turbos
Just trying to see if what I have in my head is consistent with reality. Looking for dyno numbers of people with truck manifold turbo setups.
My setup will be:
6.0L truck manifolds
Master Power T70
big *** Treadstone intercooler
317 heads (not sure if I'll leave them "stock" or get a P&P job)
LS6 cam
stock 346 short block (considering pulling entire motor and doing "something" in the way of stronger parts, though)
6 speed transmission
LS7 clutch
undecided on rear - something stronger for sure
I'm trying to keep it a "budget" build, but like everything, it seems to be snowballing into bigger things.

I put down numbers with the ebay kit. I had the truck manifolds on there for a week but I ended up putting the ebay kit back on yesterday because the truck kit didnt clear my front sway bar and I autocross. The truck setup is for sale if youre looking to save a bit of $$.

I don't have a truck mani kit, but from what I have read it really doesn't matter how you get exhaust to the turbo, its more about the motor and how well you get exhaust from the turbo (downpipe size) My car is at RPM right now getting a tune, and baring something doesn't blow up I will post numbers to let you know how it does, I have the exact same engine setup as you, so numbers should be close.
I am guessing it should be just over 500 at 8-10 psi.

I've got a 408 lq9 with stage II 75cc L92's and a 91mm turbo setup with 6.0 truck manifolds. But sadly it hasn't been started yet so I can't really give any input. I will gladly post up when it is dyno'd. Good luck with the build.
