Looking for fbody pics specifically in the k frame area under/in front of the crank pulley. Need to make sure the crossover will clear. By the way guys, looks like I have overcome the power steering issue. I will be able to offer it to work with it without any huge tearups! Couple of spy photos showing the area I need the f body pics.

Just went a took some for you. Don't mind my mess Lol
Can't really get the same view of the underside, but from your pics I can tell you that crossover will hit the torsion bars. What size is that crossover, it looks big to me but could just be the pictures. I'm going 2.25, mine is going to end up very similar to yours but with the turbo slightly more towards the passenger side I believe, so I can retain my current radiator and fan setup. These s475s are pretty big and heavy lol

Just wanted to provide an update to this for those following along...
I'm most definitely still moving forward on this. I'm hoping to finish up the turbo locating/mounting bracket tomorrow. Everything is really coming together nicely with these.
Couple of updates for you guys... I can confirm that:
-There WILL be power steering and non-power steering kits available
-The ONLY cutting to the car body anyone will have to do is a small 1/4" grind on the inner frame rail lip on and A-body to clear the stock magnum manifolds. Other then that, no other inner fender, firewall, core support, etc... cutting is required.
-You will be able to put this kit on with hand tools. No welding, machining, cutting, etc... required.
-You will not have to relocate your battery.
-You will be able to re-use your stock alternator.
-The kits will fit A,B, and E bodies. F/M are still up in the air because of the transverse torsion bars.
-I will be proving out the basic kit on a dead stock 5.2L magnum motor to show you guys what it will do on a budget.
-I will prove out the higher HP kit on my built 360 to show what you can do with a decent build.
No pics yet because the turbo is still moving around slightly, so I'd like to wait until I get the final location/layout completed before sharing... but stay tuned... they will be coming!!!
