The GEN-V GM V8 is quickly becoming the go-to for street racers and engine builders alike. Twin turbo builds are quickly becoming the norm, and the big number guys are turning to the aftermarket to supply them with turbo headers for their 21st Century LT1.
Our friends at Holley have stepped up.
Official Release:
Hooker Blackheart LT Turbo Exhaust Manifolds
The Gen-V LT platform is gaining popularity as a performance engine. Hooker Blackheart wants to make installing a power adder easier than ever with their new LT turbo manifolds! Featuring a ductile iron construction, they are designed to tuck tightly against the engine block while still allowing room for spark plug access. Read on to learn more!
Holley’s new LT Turbo Exhaust Manifolds provide a simple and effective way to add a turbo to your LT powered car or truck. These turbo manifolds are made from ductile iron, which is more durable and retains more heat than fabricated headers (aiding turbo efficiency). Their compact design allows for better fitment in multiple applications and better spark plug access than many fabricated headers do.
These manifolds work with most common LT swap parts (i.e. motor mounts, swap oil pan, and accessory drive systems) and provide the basic building blocks needed to complete a custom turbo system for your GM LT engine.
Features:
- Constructed from iron
- Works with most common LT swap parts
- Compact design allows for better fitment in multiple applications and better spark plug access
