That depends on which Garrett turbo he has.

And the plumbing for the exhaust and intake are going to be a bit hard to fabricate.

Yup wich garet? the factory turbo trucks use garrets and the ATS turbos are bassed off garets. From what i've been told on here the factory turbo trucks and newer ATS kits used T-3/T-4s but my turbo service manuale update says its a T-3

It can be made to work. I think 96s were non waste gated so it wont spool very quicly also the way they mount is different but there are users on here that have done it.
