Default putting a turbo on the 5.2

Ive turbo'd a saturn before but never a V8. are there any parts like manifolds i could buy. Any places to get parts would be great. The less one off things i need to make the better.

Thanks!

try the setup off of the cummins at least as far as the HX-40 and intercooler...

also i think you can just turn around the manifold so that they face forward.

also try searching youtube for Turbo 318/360 build, a guy has posted most of his experience with it. the thing hauls ***!
