Kelly,

Here are two approaches to using the motor plate.
The wide one will probably have to have diagonal braces
forward to the nose of the Ross PSRU.

The big problem is the hard points on the firewall are really too
close together to make a wide motor plate really practical.

I don't have a drawing on the exhaust manifold you are going to use
so I don't know where to put the turbo. From the looks of it
it needs to go back towards the firewall.

In that case I would make my own exhaust manifold  out of RB Wagner 
1-1/2 inch 304 SS pipe bends with .140 wall. Cheaper too than any 
off the shelf turbo manifold. 1-1/2 inch pipe is really 1.9 inches OD.
