Default Single T76 setup questions

So I have been gathering some parts for a T76 turbo setup on my truck. 95 GMC Yukon with a 6.0/4L80E. But I am not sure how i want to set up my turbo. would it be a bad idea to run a log manifold on the pass side and run the driver side exhaust in to the rear of the pass log? I started fabing a log for the pass side that would do this, but then i was wondering if it was that good of an idea. i guess a few concerns would be with the O2 sensor. the pass side one would be reading both the drivers side and the pass side. also would i be loosing performance by pumping the drivers side exhaust in to the pass side? I used 3" stainless pipe for the log that i started.

For what your doing it will work fine but with the room in that engine compartment, Id slap some forward facing manifolds on it, make a crossver and be done.

I dont really have all that much room. the frame rails are pretty narrow in that truck. that was one of the reasons i started fabing the log manifold. I am just wondering if the o2 sensor will be reading wrong reading both banks of exhaust.

Thats exactly how 90% of the truck guys do it, and it works very well for what it is.

well maybe i will just keep going with what i have already started. I just wasnt too sure if it was going to work or not. I guess i just didnt like the idea of feeding the left bank of exhaust in to the right bank.
