I also would like to know this. I have a 79. Eventually want to go for a single turbo setup.
I'll let you know if I find anything for c3's. I remembering hearing about a company that did design some turbo systems for c3's, they no longer exsist I believe.
I suppose you are using a sbc? Or you swapping for a LS series engine? Instead of typing in "c3 turbo manifold" try typing in sbc or LS turbo manifold. Usually turbo systems are more oriented towards what type of engine and not what type of car. "Most" anyway. Should help clear up the search. Best of luck.

Well Yes Gale Banks offers a Twin Turbo SBC so there the Manifolds work but I don't know if they would sell them separately. Turbo Engineering in Tacoma Wa might still have some around as well.

Where are you looking to mount the turbos? If you are looking to mount them forward of the engine, Stainless Works has some nice up and forward headers.

I mounted mine in the "gill" area and used shorty headers from Corvette Central.
You can see them in the corners of the picture.
