I decided not to. Perry Mick is trying out that idea. I have enough R&D going on
with out testing that scheme too. It is ideal for Perry has he has a much more
compact installation.

I have had the new mount welded up for a couple months now, and mounted
in
an engine stand/mockup firewall with an old 13B engine.  It looks great.
Started developing the new intake manifold.  I was going to install this
in
my plane this winter, but I recently moved closer to my plane (8 miles
instead of 30) so everything has been on hold for the last month.  It will
probably be next winter now before I'm ready to transplant the new 
stuff to the plane.

Now I'm thinking I might want to develop a turbocharger installation
also before moving it to the plane.

The drawings of the mount are available at:

I will have some photos shortly.
