I am sorry, I didn't mean to come off as it wont "work" I am simply saying it looks like shit.

That is my opinion.

I can understand someone like Pat using it as he is always testing different chargers or different setups but for a guy who just installed a turbo and really has no plans on changing it I would follow the link that super diesel provided and make a clean look and good functioning intake setup.

I appologize for calling it "shit" as that was not polite. I am sorry.

Well I think you might be best to make the lbz MP fit unless you have a spacer for the turbo it's going to sit in your valley pretty deep.
This makes it difficult to use a lot of stuff its a very tight rad bend.

The link the SD posted might have something to try...Not sure?

Raising the turbo opens up a lot of options for bigger and less restrictive intakes.

I use a hose cause im cheap and Josh doesnt like it:D

Try moving the valve on the coolant hard pipe it makes for more room and you wont have to buy a spacer.

See the problem is I cannot fit anything other than the LBZ MP without deleting the LLY intake tube. I need to get LBZ runners on but i haven't had that much time look at the picture below

Ok. I see a problem here. I need to gauge interest in a plug and a new location to move the turbo coolant line to. Like if I made a manifold to screw the factory plug into that moves the coolant feed line out of the way and closer to the radiator where it sould be spliced in (sort of like the inline manifold of mine)? A plug could be placed in the old location. This would be a simple install item. Any interest?

It would be nice for the lb7 owners but the lbz and lmm is different. That valve is angled straight back instead of the 7's. Its still in the way but not as bad. I vote for SD intakes for aftermarket turbos!
