Thanks libby,
Just to get the idea juices flowing, I removed the turbo and exhaust manifold and bolted on the half section of the stock AAZ intake casting. Then I set the IC into it's cubby (DS rear column) on a block to simulate a bracket mount. Glad I did because the new intake may need to be ported from the side instead of the end.
I think I'll be patient and wait for the turbo to arrive from Alcaid and go from there. I will first need to make an adapter for it to mount to the exhaust manifold and see how it all fits. No point in creating unknown limitations as the turbo will have plenty of its own.
I'm going to stop working on this for the long weekend and spend some quality time with my ever patient wife - maybe visit friends, have a glass or two of wine, you know, live
