Not many of the "inexpensive" twin turbo kits available...

As I think more about it, you are right. the 40-70 number is what I have had to write checks for to the guys but that doesn't include my time or other folks that come by that have skills and end up either fabricating or measuring or just adding those extra few gray cells at the right time.
I know we dropped a 350 crate into a Datsun 280Z in 65 total man hours from removal of the original motor to turning the new one on but that was a well planned job and had been done before by all members of the four man team. Once you get into relooming harnesses, it starts getting messy and costly.
