Default where to get lt1 hot parts?

Im looking to get hot parts for a twin turbo setup on a lt1. Does anyone sell the hotside? I have seen single hot parts but I want to do twins. Or will I have to make my own?

Realquick isn't taking orders for at least a few months for personal reasons. Not sure if he does twins either. The best I've seen is the PTK kit, but it's single also. All the LT1 twin kits out there are home-made.

yea i knew he was taking some time off, i know before he was interested in doing a twin setup cause i was asking about it. youd probably be just as happy with a single, its not as much of a plumbing nightmare as twins

I want to do a twin setup cause there is a guy in the area that has a fast one but hes kinda secret about it. Here is link to a video of the car if anyone knows any info about it i know it has big twins on it and that it is still a lt1 motor.

Yeah. Homemade kits are all that I can imagine. You can 'marry' the two mounting positions I've seen for singles. Remove the battery, put it in the hatch area thus freeing up the area for the passenger side mounted Turbo, then remove the ABS(going to a proportional valve for the rear brakes) and put the drivers side Turbo in the area where the ABS and Cold Air Intake used to live.

For twins you are going to have to make you own kit. The first thing you need to consider is what amenities do you want to retain. From there you just need to route everything out. For my single turbo setup I'm using a Hooker single cat header for the passenger side and an old SBC header on the driver's side. Both are going to have some work in them, but for free it's hard to argue with.
