SuperDave, When you get around to firing up the beast I have a good source for heat shielding material that you will need. It's cheap and easy to bend around.

The first few times I went boating with my turbo setup I was amazed at the heat that radiated from the pipes and turbo's.
Even traveling along at 40 mph you could still feel the heat on the back of your neck that radiated from the turbo's that were over 5' away.
It's like having a woodburner in the back seat.
A little heat shielding does wonders though. It's just the radiant heat that you need to block.
Marc, everything on mine will have water jackets. I'm even making a jacketed cover for the turbos.
