Twin turbo headers for sale at thirdgen.org. That's bi-turbo in Canadian.

Nevermind. You can get these for $200 every day with free shipping. Must be cheap as crap.

I've been trying to sell a BEEFY turbo header for years.

Let's see it. I'm too lazy to do a search. I have a friend thinking seriously about a single turbo in a '80's Monte Carlo.

With that style of single turbo, the far side of the engine runs a shorty header or stock log, and the drop from that side is plumbed into the turbo header.

eBay turbo stuff is more often than not 100% crap Chinesium. Warpage becomes a big problem on those.

Probably depends more on the manifold.

IIRC Ian said that header will fit a T70 under the hood. I would think in a Monte you would have better clearance, though.

It fit under the hood with my t70. I think there was valve cover clearance issues before hood clearance issues. I'm not sure there are too many physically larger turbos without going to a T6 flange though. (This has the ever popular t4 non-divided flange)
