Its not an A body but I have a Nova with Vette accessories and a single turbo. I think twins would work pretty well with Vette parts. You can take a cut down truck manifold and a LS4 manifold and angle mill the flanges to tuck the manifolds in tighter to the engine. Keeps most of the hot stuff down low away from the fuel lines and intake too.

Thanks for the pic Nova. I have an LS6 intake I don't want to give up just yet...lol. As in your pic you can see the alternator in the way. Mine is not that tight...but it might be time to switch pace and do a single...sigh. Do you have anymore pics of your piping and what are you using for a fuel system? More details the better brother.
