Default is this twin turbo idea a possibility for an fbody...?

hey guys i have seen guys do the revered 6.0l truck manifolds and some kits look really great. also it appears that a lot of people mount one turbo over to the passenger side of the engine compartment by the bottom. TTI, phamspeed, etc.

now what if you reversed the truck manifolds, and then routed a pipe to each side of the engine compartment and then mount a turbo on each side. from there you could just run the exhaust out the back and have a dual inlet and single outlet intercooler.

you guys catching my drift? it just seems at least as feasible to me as a single turbo this way.

Thanks
Louie

The car is a street setup. Minus the Kirkey's on the interior it still has heat, radio, full accessories (except AC). Tops the scales 3500+. Even took it out for a night of fun and got it on video. The question really is, what's your threshold for streetable. If the racing seats scare you, then the turbos will make you **** your drawers.

The wires are all still there. They are just on the underside of the car. Just take the fuse block and flip it over onto the bottom of the same spot that it normally sits. Pretty deceiving.

did you just flip the boxes or reroute the wires underneath to
i couldnt find any good pictures to tell.
