Need some turbo help.

Well i recently picked up the hotside for twin hx35's on a third gen from craigslist, the setup is obviously not the best thought out system but it worked for the PO's purposes. For 150 bucks ill take my chances. id love to upload some pics but have no clue how, if i could email the pics to someone and get them uploaded that would be amazing so you guys could see what i have to work with. i plan to make a crossover to connect both headers and run a single hx35 and i need your creativeness!!!!

i also have a couple other questions like can i get my oil feed from the small port above the timing cover in front? i figured another member would have used it by now, but havent seen it in any previous builds.
Ive never heard of Sanderson headers but thats what the ones i bought are, Poor Quality? they look to be decent, any input is appreciated!

Thanks, Kaleb.

the quality isn't bad, they are based out of san francisco I think, they do a bunch of old school and rat-rod type stuff. Im using them for my turbo build. their customer service however... TERRIBLE.

Re: Need some turbo help.

come on guys, nothing??well i have more questions

with my very low goal of 400WHP would this diff and some new bearings hold up for a year or so with no sticky tires? its an auto too so the rear shouldnt take a huge beating.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/REMAN-7-5-7-...item3cbf161ff5
seems like a decent deal and you get 75 bucks back if you return your old one.

one more question tonight, i bought a torque arm package off of fleebay that has the short style torque arm and plate that bolts to the floor pan. the plate has a "finger" that the torque arm slides onto and the finger has a couple holes in it.once mounted, i figured that there would be a pin that slid through the torque arm and the finger and i could press the plate against the floor, marks my holes, drill, Etc. BUT there is no hole in the torque arm so how do i know where too mount the plate? sorry if this is confusing and sounds like a dumb question but i figured if mounted incorrectly this could cause serious issues. please give me some input guys im really trying to learn alot with this build!!!
