ok that makes sense..the pipes are not a 1 1/2 too short...there too long..i do not think you can cross breed parts..you need turbo,Y pipe, pedestal and plenums off of a 99.5-03 truck to make it all fit..or maybe you can cut the pipes shorter but i do not see that being easy....i think the bend at the manifold is different as well...

Right on point......

But the turbo on the truck will bolt to the y-pipe.....but I'm assuming the mounting and oiling points are different between e99 and 99.5 pedestals and turbos?

I think there is wiggle room to be had with the plenum or just get longer boots

Or is there another option for the E99 for better up pipes than stock that I'm not aware of???

I feel like your avatar is dead nuts on for this thread Eric......everyone just looking at each other, not sure what the answer is LOL

LoL, from my knowledge of the 7.3 ( which is little ) the manifolds changed in 1997 to the Super Duty style starting with the 450 and 550 trucks and then was standard in 1998 production runs of the E99 250 / 350 trucks. I just happened to have a 1997 OBS one on the floor in the shop right now.
