First thing. There is no plug or wire problem. Look at it as taking the heads off with the manifolds bolted on the right way and then putting them on the other side. We run Taylor 409 race wires for a truck, because we run truck coils.
I designed and built the setup on the Formula (picture you posted). Also the setup in my CE which uses a GTB-88. With no loss of ground clearance or cutting while using the 6.0 manifolds. Did I mention it has full exhaust. We will be doing a truck setup this spring. We made a template and have the flanges made in exchange for a 12 pack.

I would believe a twin setup would be fairly easy depending on what you wanted to relocate or do away with. If you retain power stearing you have to have custom lines made. If this is just a drag car then all you need to do is get the manifolds on and put the turbos in a similar location as Harlan. Piece a cake.

Well Twin I do wanna keep the power steering no problem making the lines the thing i need to know is about the alternator should i mount it up top? I dont care if it have a/c most likely im getting rid of that. Just a weekend car to drive around and drive to the drag strip and ripp some trailer cars off and drive home. Its gonna be a iron block 408 with tube k member. If i go twin im thinking of like 2 t-63 turbos or something like that. i wanna run 9's with the car so what turbo would be ok for a twin set up. I sould mind the set up you did in the picture i posted either. got one laying around

im pretty sure you wil have to move the alt up top if you use those manafolds.

two T63 should give you enough power to get into the nines no problem.
ofcoarse it depends on your weight, if you wher elight enough some 50mm's should get you there, but id go bigger then a T60

how are you going to route the down pipes?
what accesories are you keeping or getting rid of?

are you going to have to move up the radiator, or replace it?

thank you
i'll probly run the down pipes just below the k-member, will propably have to flatten them for ground clearance. As for accesories, getting rid of ac, relocating alternator, and a friend of mine is gonna make an abs pump delete for me at his shop. Stock radiator is going out, ill have to cut out the middle section of the radiator support to install a new one from summit (stock radiator is too tall). I dont have an IC yet, but im thinking of getting one just like this https://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-induction/269996-check-out-my-new-phamspeed-intercooler.html i'll cut the bumper support and place the IC in it, maybe ill make a nice frame support in the back of the IC for some front end strengthening.

Hey guys. I picked up a set of 6.0 manifolds and I noticed that one collector is 2" and the other is 2.5". Do they flow the same or do I have to modify them?

Thanks!
