Default Universal DIY LS1 Tubular turbo manifolds

Anyone ever try these for a forward mount single or twin setup? I am planning truck manifolds, but thought these would look nice and potential flow better for a small price...other than consuming what looks like more space than the truck manifolds. This is an engine swap with F-Body accessories. Would like something that doesnt require me to move the alternator. I am planning on forward and down. No AC Compressor to worry about.

Examples:

This one might point downwards too much.

Looking for other options

I would use truck manifolds. Cheaper, less space, and they'll flow more than you need.

WAY easier to replace the plugs and won't fry plug wires either.
