I did the same thing at work. I was reading your build thread got to that and was almost in tears. My guys were looking at me like "something is wrong with him"!

69tk they are for thermo-couplers I'm pretty sure.

Nice score. I think that's about what I paid for mine too.

Re: ls turbo build
 
I didn't go back and re-read your build, but are you planning on running A/C? I'm curious as to turbo placement and if the C6 manifolds would all me to run something like a Vinatage Air setup.

69trk 09-05-2014 01:48 PM

Re: ls turbo build
 
Yes running ac that's why i bought these manifolds.. Im getting excited.. ac system should be here today when i get home...:metal:

stainless headers, I will have to add a 3/8 flange with 2 gaskets to move the passenger header away from the ac compressor...

Are those the Ebay turbo headers?

69trk 03-30-2015 11:39 AM

Re: ls turbo build
 
Not sure, bought them from an individual.. welds and everything look good. Plus they are 1 3/4 ports and I think the ebay headers are 1 5/8.. either way im going to have them jethot coated. If they are ebay headers hope the coating will make them last
