Default FM turbo LSx in a 3rd gen

Im putting a lq4 in my 91 z28 and was planning to do a front mount turbo, im trying to find some more info on the manifolds that will fit and the best way to set it up? I know of one person on another forum that has done it but its not really a true front mount. Can this be done without making custom turbo headers? any help is appreciated, thanks

You can use C6 Manifolds and truck manifolds for it but it woill be completly custom I currently have an STS kit on my LS1 IROC and have been mocking up a front mount twin turbo setup on my soon to be LSX 91 Z28 good luck with the project.
