started the ball rolling on my turbo IH build (now with fluxcore log manifold)
with some flange love. waiting for more $ to start the manifolds, i'm undecided whether or not to go with sch10 weld ells, black iron fittings, or regular exhaust mandrel bends for the turbo manis. more than likely i will go with the black iron fittings 
going to run 2 s4 rx7 hitachi turbos, i got one flange cut, i'll work on the other one tomorrow. not using the split scroll, if i can't spool these turbos with 3200cc's and a carb dumping insane amounts of fuel, i'll go for one single horse sized holset or some diesel turbo.
bandsaw, dremel (air compressor dropped a valve) and torch made these. bench grinder to wire wheel/smooth the edges
and the exhaust flanges. 5 3/8" bolts hold these puppies on, i'll need some bracing
shortblock (same as mine), then longblock (different coolant passages, not for heavy applications) that i'm using. 392ci, gear on gear cam drive, pushrod love
where im stuffing two turbos (inner fender/fender is off for cab rust repair)

Re: started the ball rolling on my turbo IH build
you will spool these no problem. The series 4 had the smaller rear housing than the series 5, port your wastegate housing tho because the series 4 had one small port and were notorious for spiking where the s5 had two wastegate holes that solved that problem.
