48-52 engine bay pics

Im looking for some good engine bay pics of a 48-52 f1 with a 302 and m2 IFS. I need to get a good idea of how much space I will have with this combo, and if I will need a recessed firewall. Somehow I got this crazy idea of a twin turbo setup.

Thanks

I don't have a Mustang II suspension but I got a twin-I-beam which mounts the engine almost the same. You shouldn't need to modify the firewall.

should be oodles of room particularily compared to 5.0 stang. Turbomustangs.com is a pretty good source of info if you aren't sure how you want to do it. They have a great diy forum. Many are a little optimistic on how little you can get away with as far as tuning, maf meters etc. For instance I was told a 75 mm maf was big enough when it is not, recalibrated maf was not even close, stock turbocoupe wastegates were not big enough etc.
