Default STS and Truck Manifolds?

Will truck manifolds work instead of the fbody manifolds.. I purchased a 2000 ta roller with turbo kit and I've got the truck manifolds with the donor motor.

More information would probably help you get the answer your looking for. A STS kit is a rear mounted turbo system so I am not sure how the manifold whether truck or Fbody play into that.

You'll need fbody manifolds if you are mounting the turbo in the rear with an sts setup. If you are mounting the turbo in the front, you'll need to is the truck manifolds.

I'm sure you'd find some FBody manifolds almost for free in the classifieds. Bound to be thousands of sets lying about, or some people parting out a car.
