If I build my own I would like to keep the price down, so I would use the manifolds that I have and use v-band clamps.

SO here is another ? can do a walbro 255 and just crank up the pressure on the fuel system instead of doing exotic fuel upgrades due to the fact that I still have return style fuel system and some bigger injectors maybe external pump later?

Just so you know. The poster above this one Rick Vor had built numerous twin turbo vehicles. He knows what he is talking about. Any time he says something I listen.
Also why not flip the truck manifolds cut the flanges off the pipes that bolt to the manifold and weld to those.

No I wasn't trying to insult anyone, so don't take it that way in fact his post was exactly what I was talking about just that I want to use V-band exhaust inlet turbo instead of T-4. I spoke with Turbonetics they said I could order it that way, and can I do the fuel sytem that way instead of 60 psi maybe 70 or 80psi I know that brings up the injector duty cycle up. You guys have alot of issues with the returnless fuel sytem because pressure!

No reason to cut and weld, you can use the manifolds as they are. just build mid pipes to the turbos.

I already cut the flanges off the manifolds, yeah I figure I can use the crossmember that I built for a 4L80e trans and just buy a LQ4 drivetrain with wirring and computer I think I saw them on e-bay for $1500 or so and the trans should be good for a while RIGHT?

just some advice, why not focus on one thing in this thread... Your jumping all over the place.... Turbo flanges, fuel pressure, crossmembers, engines, trannies...
