Making twin turbo maniofolds for the M113

I recently got some junk E55 manifolds with good flanges and since i need money for my own turbo e320 Im doing this for my mechanic. Theres a 2000 E55 at the local shop and Dutch, the owner and mechanic, let me pull some measurements with it on a lift. In short they are going to be thick stainless steel, T3 flanged, log-style TT manifolds designed to use an external gate on each side.

Ill post pics when they take shape in the coming weeks just wanted to know anyones thoughts or interest on this. Wouldnt the manifolds from a 4.3l and 5.0l m113 fit the E55 as well?

Heres the old photoshop I made for dutch using a picture of my own manifold. Although the turbo's compressor will be smaller and the wastegates are pointing the wrong way, this is exactly what they are going to look like.

Looks like fun! I'll be very interested to see how the driver's side all fits... it's a tight squeeze on that side. Keep us posted!
