Twin turbo 5.3?

So, a little background... I tore the reverse gear out of my 1979 k10 with a 305/th350/np203. My friends finally convinced me to do a 5.3l swap into the truck...


So while perusing a local junkyard I found 2 6.5 turbodiesels being parted out... both turbos are there and in good condition. I've seen a video or two of "stock" 5.3s with 2 turbos but I have a feeling thats not exactly true.


Should I attempt this? Is this a doable build on a 3-4k budget? I will raise my budget as neccessary.
