AKSSS Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 (edited) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...;category=33742 this is a link to an ebay bidding for some turbo plumbing what are the chances this would work on a truck?? That looks like a pretty good setup. I don't know if the turbo would clear all of the accessories in the front even with e-fans on there though. I think that looks like a good front mount setup really. Be really easy to plumb to the intake or i/c. That flex pipe cross over is a good thing. Seen a few of them break right there. I think I would try it if it would fit. Trick performance also makes a front mount setup just for our trucks. Bolts right on. Might check that out too! They have alot of experience with front mounts.

They have alot of experience with front mounts. yeah that the only thing there would be a problem with is clearing the serpentine belt system, i have a serpentine belt system for a corvette that would fit on my ss, but i'm just not sure about the a/c comperssor. i'm reaaly wanting to rune that setup on my 1992 camaro that i have swapped a 5.3 votec truck engine in.

They have alot of experience with front mounts. im always sketchy of items on ebay that have that long of a title for the item . but yeah i think that would more than likely run into the accessories. then again, who needs A/C and power steering? I looked at trick performance's kit up and down, would go with it but am leaning more toward kb racing's kit http://www.performancetrucks.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=426570 Mostly because I have more faith in master-power turbos than i do turbonetics, but to each their own.
