questions about C6 manifolds for LS1 turbo build
I bought a set of C6 LS2 exhaust manifolds off of Ebay to use one on my passenger side for the turbo plumbing. My first question is what do I plug these holes with (I am assuming it is for an O2 sensor or something)?
Secondly, where can I get a two bolt flange for this to weld to my plumbing? The spacing of the two bolts center-to-center is ~ 4 3/8".
Thanks!

so, just put a cut down bolt in that hole and call it a day. thats what i did. i cut it down because I couldnt find that bolt in the correct length.
I got custom made flanges from smi fab

they were like 40 bucks shipped for the pair, and he can make them with any size hole you want.

Why two passenger manifolds? I wondered if they would work turned upward in an fbody since they seem to be more compact, but I had doubts about clearance, especially with an SS hood. With the engine out of the car, it makes it even harder to gauge.
Looks like a sweet setup!

In my car the RH manifold flipped upsided down and pointing forward on the passenger side it was too close to my strut tower. I debated notching the tower but I didn't really like the idead of cutting metal out to make it fit. This worked much better for me. They are deffinetly a compact design.
