Default turbo headers

Hey I was curious if anyone has ever taken a set of shorty headers and modified them to do a twin setup? I was curious to see pics if anyone had any. I was also curious if anyone has seen the new ss works set that they just recently added to their site which advertised lsx turbo headers. I would appreciate all the pics and info you could give me. Just trying to explore all the options. Thanks Chris

Not sure that they are aftermarket shorties or custom setups and grant it this is an LT1 setup but this is what I ordered for hotparts courtesy of RealQuick. Nice setups and make good power. This could give you some ideas.

Do these headers clear everything in the C5?

And can stainless make a flange for the turbo (say t4) and something for the external wastegate?

Havent had them on a C5, They were designed around a LS1 F-Body, so I doubt it. As for the rest of the setup I build it all custom.
