Turn the manifolds around and make a 2.25"-2.5" cross over infront of the engine and put the turbo right there. use a pusher fan in front of the radiator for more clearence. Check out the sticky DIY on 6.0 manifold turbo kit. Lots of great info and ideas there to get you started

I watched your video,that is a very nice and clean setup! Did you get the intake from a dealer or wrecking yard? How is your setup holding up? Where can I get the flange for the turbo? and how much boost are you pushing?

Here is the build up thread I did with the 5.3 and MP t-70 turbo, I put in my dads '72 Chevy 4x4. I did ALL the work myself. Let me know if you have any question.

Depends if you want a stock ls1 intake probably 50-100 bux and if you want the better LS6 intake your lookin at 300 or so .... the throttle body is a stocker that was ported.
