anything is possible... Doesn't mean that its a good idea, or that it would work correctly.

Waaaay too small for a single, but two might work ok on a 4.8L.

you would get full boost at idle to 2000 rpm's and choke your motor down from then on.

Even if you got two, you'd have to find a way to adapt them to your truck. The turbine housing is cast in one piece with the manifold.
