Default UMI K-member Turbo Clearance

Hi Gang,

I tried to search but couldn't come up with anything conclusive for what I am attempting. I have a kit on a stock K member, but i want to redo some of the piping.

I am looking to run a 3-3.5 inch downpipe on the drivers side along with a truck manifold.

Is this doable with a UMI K member? I read about people being able to sneak a 4" on the pass side, but I've done that in the past with a stock k-member...

Any help would be appreciated.

might be a silly question, but why not use the BMR turbo K?

Not sure if this is relevant to your question since I have a LT1, but I have a road race UMI k-member and am running a 3.5" downpipe on the drivers side. I've got a custom turbo setup with custom headers so I don't know if manifolds will interfere or not.

I've found that I can fit up to a 3.5 in on a stock k member and not on as umi in the AC location, for the drivers side I know I can sneak a 3in on stock but not sure with the k member...
