Default B-series turbo- Which mount kit?

I am just wondering what mount kit you guys are using that have a turbo on your b-series car? Just wondering how the fitment is and if some work better than others. I have an LS swap and I am in the process of selecting mounts. Right now I am leaning towards the Hasport because of reputation.

Thanks
Jarrid

hcp will make anything fit w/ a lot of ease. however you need an adjustable shift linkage. hasports will allow for a much more tight fit.

If it gets a little warmer this weekend, I may try and test fit my drag III kit on my b16 with Hasport billet mounts. I don't think the Fluidyne is going to be happy about it though.

prolly not......Place Racing mounts, a DRAG III kit and a B18A......makes for lots of fitment issues and fun with hammers.

Guess I got to ditch the fluidyne. Any replacement suggestions? I've got a jimfab x-member on the way if that matters.

I be the turbo housing is gonna be awfully close. I looked into my engine bay and took a gasp the other day after seeing the size of my turbo.
