Truck manifolds?? Does anyone think truck manifolds will hold up to a 5.3 with a 250 shot?? Looking to grab a set and make a quick forward facing header set just to get the car running.

First off, people are running big turbo kits off those manifolds (600hp+) so I don't think you will be having an issue.
Secondly I wouldn't start spraying a motor you "just got running" until you know its tuned and running properly and your fuel system is up to the job.

Doesn't nitrous need a freer exhaust like NA rather than intentionally building backpressure like a turbo does?
I k now the truck exhaust manifolds work well for turbo no argument there. My point is that I don't think that automatically means they work well for non-turbo.
