Happy New Year

I want to start work on modelling my up/forward turbo headers in Solidworks and need a couple of quick measurements to define the space constraints.

I can't remember whose car this is but I hope they don't mind me using their pic, as I've saved quite a few for reference sake.

I'm looking for measurements between both the heads and shock towers, rear of driver side head to brake booster, and front of the heads to the radiator.

Thanks so much fellas.

Here is a pic of my setup, i know it doesn't help you with measurements but it gives you an idea how room there is. I still have room for the AC compressor too.

This is my first turbo setup, it has turned out to work very well but I will eventually redo the hot side in stainless and have it ceramic coated. A lot of cleanup work remains - I need to delete ABS - its just fugly!
