I am running the stainless works up and forward (look exactly like these) and if you move a couple things around you should have plenty of room.





You sorta get the idea how far they come out, mine are a little different because the are built for an fbody to keep all the accessories but should still give you an idea.

Yeah sandman, that is exactly how nelson racing engines does it. I believe you can even buy the 90's with flanges and wastegate mounts as well. I don't think they are that expensive.

Quik also has Fbody accessories not truck accessories.. The alternator would cause some issues with truck accessories...

Nope that's all you lol. Really it's just the alternator I'm worried about
