i dont want anything to crazy im just afraid with that size turbo on my log manifold it'll hit the radiator, since my t3/t4 got close.

What happened to the one you bought exactly like that Mike? The one you pieced together got sold.
When did you learn how to TIG?

I pieced together a mock up one, sold it.
Made another with a few slight changes and thats what on the car now. I built it and had quicksilver99 weld it up for me.
Okay so I didnt make the whole thing since I did not weld it myself, but I did all the fabbing and tacking it together/designed it.
lol, I didnt buy one exactly like that silly.

so would you be willing to make another one? Just trying to find me one and yours is pretty simple designed i dont really want any crazy tubing work just something that gets it away from the radiator and that looks better.

then this manifold is not for you if your worried about clearence.
Look in the int/ext forum at my pics of my car I just posted yesterday...you will see there is only about a 3/4" clearence between my turbo and radiator, then again I do have a thicker Fluidyne though. My turbo is a Precision SC61 for reference.

ill probably run a fluidyne or mushimoto and be running a smaller turbo. so i think the clearance should be ok.
