You can use the stock manifold.

Well, here you go:PP&R Custom Turbo Exhaust

Really expensive, but, if you want to go for it. You can just make one out of your stock exhaust manifold though as Zilla said.

That turbo manifold is pretty cool, and most likely worth every penny if you are going to build a serious turbo motor. The stock manifold works, is way cheaper, but can crack very easily.

Hmmm, I hadn't seen that PPR one. Lots of custom people can do this for about that money, but finding someone good is the hard part.

That guy dropped off the face of the earth. He made at least 2 - one for himself and one is in the hands of Possum Parker. I told Ron if he doesn't use it soon, I'm going to break into his shop and steal it for m'self...

:lol:

I suggest you look at pictures of some of the turbo /6 out there. There is a lot to make it work then just the turbo charger.

HA!
Sorry do not take this mean, but the manifold is the simplest part of strapping a turbo on the slant six. If it's your first slant, or this thread was your starting place you need to do more homework. The easiest thing and what I would suggest (if school wasn't starting in a few days I woudl fab one up for cheap enough) was to take a piece of 90 or greater bent tubing and make some 1/2 in thick flanges one would bolt onto your stock manifold and the other to a t3 flange.
You still really need to mount and plumb an intercooler as eve 6psi really needs to be cooled especially for relatively daily driving. Than once you do all the plumbing and the stock pistons somehow survive you got tuning. Which I would consider the EFI route over the blowthrough carb. The blowthrough carb is sort of an after thought for the purpose of the carb you noticed even mechanical injection was built onto the early blown motors.

Um.... j-bend or 90deg tube, and some 1/2in plate with the flanges cut to bolt to your stock manifold and one to a t3 flange doesn't sound that complicated. I have a plasma cutter and welder but I'm sure you could draw it on or take soem gaskets to a shop and have it fabbed up for "cheap". Otherwise, how would someone plan to do the rest of the tuning if they couldn't fab this? It would be very difficult to do the rest even with pre-bent stuff without the tools needed to make the piece metioned above.
Maybe you should look at NOS.
