Smallblock Turbo Manifolds Hitting Ebay

I seen in the past week these hitting ebay, china built but dont look to bad and one set was priced at $500 buy now and another set started at $50, probably go for $250.

They look to be fabbed by the same folks dong the small tube stainless headers that are pretty decent.

I asked another supplier and it looks soon to be a full twin turbo china kit coming to market for around a grand.

Might be fun if one subs the turbos for good ones.

Ha,
I was just fixing to post this.
Buy it now is at $450 atm.
I see bidding on a pair with 3hrs to go at $170.

The “kit” has been out about a month. Was $2000 until last week they drpped it to
$1749
I asked last month if they sold only headers and they said no.
But today I just saw the above.

Open the box, throw away the gaskets, and install.

Those look interesting.

those look like they make make doing a turbo kit hard... both manifolds are identical. how the tubes come off the flange... then the collector faces down- until you mount the other side and it is UP!


id like to see it for a 440 though- id deal with crap angles and generic made!

That's what I was thinking: 2 right-side headers...

The head flanges are different. I wonder why one header is upside down

They are just trying to show both the top and bottom. The flanges need to go in opposite directions if you are using common tangential exhaust housings. Using on-center exhaust housings would make one side high and the other low. This is assuming you are using two turbochargers.

I started wanting some sb turbo manifolds in the late 90’s after playing with a turbo z 2.2l.

I’m amazed after all these years nobody has mass produced some decent manifolds.

That Fahler guy is making ONE and I do me ONE style of manifold for LS powered trucks and he is backed up 6mo.

Even though he has massive competition from tricky performance, Hooker, and many others.

Pretty trippy.

When I retire in 2 years I’m going to build log and shorty tube headers from shedule 10 stainless.
Have both types for B and A bodies.
Big and small block.
Of I can find a junk E body engine bay I could build both styles and engines for those too.

What’s that?
12 different manifolds total?

Something to fiddle with in the garage and then see who wants one. lol

A well-sorted example of the "headers look good, but the results are disappointing": all the 1,000+ HP LSX engines out there using the original truck manifolds.
Same is true for up to about 700 HP on the Toyota 183" 2JZ engine: a cast manifold is really close to the hand-fab $2,500 header, and lasts 10 X as long. Mine is made by SPA in Brazil.



What else favors cast instead of tube?
1. much lower underhood temperature
2. less lost heat energy reaching the turbine inlet

Totally agree.
This is why I am building me a semi-log style patterned after
the LSx factory manifolds and making them out of schedule 40.

Just gotta get my compression whoas’ figured out.

yup, I used these rather than build [img]https://photos.app.goo.gl/sTCVZUHQ0DeinkFI2[/img]
