I would send you over to the turbo forum
http://www.theturboforums.com/
You need to decide what you expect, what you want. If you just want a simple turbo for a bit of boost, there's several guys that have done that in much the same way. One guy is named "Ward" and there's another both on FABO and at the turbo forum that had done the same thing
http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/...1&d=1255140991
What you do, is use late Dakota / Ram manifolds turned around facing front. You make a crossover pipe going down in front of the engine, and mount the turbo in the pass front corner. The single big exhaust goes up over, and down in the far pass. corner. This is a good way to keep it simple.
Lots of guys have gone TT with these.
If you want a radical "I'd like to dream but can't afford" it deal, Check out "EarlyHemiBill." HE is putting a twin turboed, injected Desoto early hemi in a Valiant. That thing is gonna be a MONSTER

Now, I cannot do this man justice. But to "touch around the edges" you are looking at an early Desoto with LOTS of hand made parts. He made a new timing cover, partly so he can use a later more available water pump. He modified the injector setup to use electronic injection. Had made all the plumbing for the turbos and fuel.. I'm sure there's a BUNCH of "little details"
