Default C5 hot section

Looking to put my turboed 370 setup in my C5Z. It was in my F-body with the reverse manifold setup. What are my options for the manifold/header
in the C5?? Because it does not look like the reverse (truck)manifold is going to work. Here are the options I'm aware of:
1) one off custom fab manifolds
2) complete hot sections (Hinson/or other aftermarket manufactors)

I forgot to say its going to be a front mount. What I'm really looking for is a reverse manifold setup thats works(C6) or maybe a shorty header that can be flipped. Thats kind of the mind set on this project. If it matters this is a 04 ZO6. Just post, even if you think I may allready know the lead your giving. I'm interested in every avenue !!!!

Thanks in advance

Both your options listed are what you have to work with. There is not much room to fit everything up front so unless it is made on/for your setup it will not work. Either buy a kit made for a c5 or have someone make you a kit. Make sure you coat/ wrap everything to keep the heat down.

Its a S88, so its pretty big. Hinson seems to make a nice complete kit but all I need is the manifolds or something along those lines. The rest of my setup is done.
