right iv had another think about how to connect it to 'rock' with the engine,
seeing as the 'powerbox' is hollow i can drill it and put nuts and bolts thru it,
if i weld a plate onto the pipe comming from the charger, and bolt it to the powerbox, and use some rose joint linkages for supports, it will rock with the engine lol

so it will be like the ps with the pipe work, but all bolted to the powerbox :)

pipe welded to the charger flange, pipe welded to some flat bar, flat bar bolted to the alloy powebox, and some bars across the top to carry the weight :)
and some pipe work lol

Baxter have you though if you do a cut out cross member, would it fit better at the front ( i know this would be close to rad and manifold and gain heat) but it might be an option to gain better access to the drive belt??
The end off the day anything is possible if you want..
Scott
i have looked at this scott, and put it this way, not a chance, as my oil filters on the front and the way the manifold sits lol
+ with the weight of it all on the front, i could of put a V6 in there, if i put it at the back, it wont be that bad lol
Another option (but this is technical, so you wont do it lol)
Some how look to try do away with the vaux inlet manifold, construct something so you could mount TB direct to the charger, and that TB to a new custom inlet manifold??
EDIT: EG the C20XE inlet and TB setup is the sort of thing I'm thinking..
This would save space and do away with all the piping!
