Default Hooker ls turbo manifolds and crossover??

okay so building my streetcar version of my racecar. Don’t really want to build a turbo kit and I have been looking at the hooker ls turbo manifolds. The ones where the crossover goes back and under the tranny. Has anybody used these on a 4th gen f body? And will they work with stock k member. I know the driver side will work but the passenger side where the turbo actually mounts to I’m scared hangs to low and will hit motor mounts. If anybody has used them on a 4th gen please share experiences and pics. Thanks !

Luke,

It was my understanding they were designed for a pickup to clear a 4l80 and use a stock left truck manifold.

They fit fbody, but with the way the pipe comes down in the rear it doesn't leave much room for a rear exit downpipe if that's in your plans. I'll post more pictures up later if no one else has yet.

I have the Hooker set up about to put it together this weekend with a 86mm on3 t6 . I will say I tried them on a motor we had sitting on an f body k member. If you are using the ploy mounts the bolts will have o be flipped or grind enough off from them to clear the manis they hug the block real good.

Sorry, been busy. Here are some more pictures for you. Probably some duplicates, but you'll be able to sift through them. haha








Just stuck a stub of intercooler pipe over it here.





Playing with some 3" pipe to get an idea for exhaust going to the rear.​​​​






More goofing around with a t6 flange​​​​​​​

For some reason, i am unable to view your pictures. I'm really considering running this manifold with an small Sanden AC compressor relocated.

Thank You! those pictures were very helpful. It looks like a 3.5 or 4" down pipe should fit under the pass side manifold and through the K member relatively easily, right?

Yes there is room under the manifold. The problem I see is where the pipe from the drivers side comes into the passenger side you'll probably have to get creative to get it past that point, but it should be doable.
