First gen banks turbo kit parts for sale

[Murphy21]

i just bought a first gen banks turbo kit, im pretty sure its for a auto transmission but i have a manual transmission so i was wounding if that auto down/y pipe will work and same with the pedastool or will i need to find them for a manual transmission? if any one knows were i could get a manual down/y pipe and pedastool let me know please.

You will need to get a manual pedestal, it physically won't fit on a manual.
As for locating one... You're going to have to probably ebay it or find some NOS.

what about the y pipe will the one i have fit? and how are the pedestals different?

Banks turbo auto to manual, differences?

I have an '86 with a Banks turbo with rectangular air box says Sidewinder on it. Truck currently has a C6 and I will be converting to a ZF5. Does anyone know what the differences are between auto or manual on these turbos? Can I use what I have with a ZF5? Will I have to modify anything to fit...

Should answer everything you need to know, plus pictures as to how different they are.

Just now finding myself in the same boat. C6 on my 87 started having issues so decided to finally do the zf5 swap. So far eBay and marketplace haven't turned up anything. Anyone happen to have a pedestal and up pipes for the first gen non wg banks laying around taking up space?

Check CDD, they had a banks non wg part or two on there last time I was window shopping.

I bought one from CDD a while back. Keep checking there.

Their website says they are out, but I texted them and they says he might have 2. Luckily I only live about 30 minutes from them. But during disassembly last night, I discovered my up pipe tube is actually flattened out where it goes by the transmission. It will be mighty close, but Im going to see if I can bend it just enough to make it fit. If not, CDD should have a pedestal, and I think I can still get the pipes from banks

I'm not sure if you still can or not. A few years back, I bought all new crossover pipes from Banks, but I seem to recall someone saying that they didn't sell that stuff anymore. If they do, you won't be able to find it on their site. You'll have to call and talk to a sales rep. That's how I got my parts.

That's what I was thinking. I guess I will find out soon. Tomorrow will be dry fitting my zf to see how close the pipes are and if I can make them work as is
