I'm thinking of piecing a turbo kit together. From my research I think the truck manifolds are going to suit my needs just fine. My question is, will they fit the 96 LT4?

Not any LS style manifolds.

Thats pretty disappointing, I was happy that I was going to save some money on that part of the project. Is there another similar set of headers I can use?

I thought you searched.

I definitely have... However I'm not really the most computer savvy person to use the Internet lol. I have the entire list of parts I need to turbo, I just need to figure out which manifolds will work.

Me either but these guys will tell you to search if your asking very easy answered questions. Those wont work like stated.

I'm definitely not buying a kit, I'm going to be fabbing all of the charge piping and whatnot with stainless. I was just trying to use truck manifolds to save money.

From what I gather on that site I can use oem LT1 manifolds flipped around. Thanks for the link, I'll definitely keep this option in mind. I may find some bbk shorties.

I am sorry but I had to ask a question... you are building a turbo setup from scratch and doing all the work but yet you dont have the ability to tell that the lt4 engine head exhaust ports do not line up with any lsx manifold due to their location????!?
And I would think you know how to search pictures on google if you can register on a forum and post up questions so I dont see the issue. What am I missing?

If you REALLY must know, I come from building turbo 4 and 6 cylinder cars and must be wising up to the displacement theory in my older age. This is my first V8 domestic vehicle, so forgive me if I'm not completely familiar with the technology differences between the LS series motors and the LT series motors. Like I said I searched, but the search terms that I was using weren't giving me much luck. I figured it wouldn't hurt to post finally and get some insight from you guys!! Sorry if I struck a chord with anyone lol
