Default TT fbody question

So ive been doing some thinking and searching with not much luck.im interested in doing a home built tt kit . However everything I see is stand up rad or aps kits.has no one built their own low mount kit simalar to the aps kits? Cars gotta retain ac and im not overly open to a stand up rad.i could go single but my biggest issue is fans that are sufficient. I know the derale 16925's seem to be the ticket but I also see over heating issues.is it really that big of a pain to hug two turbos on each side of the block in a fbody?

most of what I have seen are cars that have relocated their battery and fuse boxes. That equals out to a ton of time going into getting them there. Keeping the a/c wouldn't be too hard you would just have to route the a/c lines and cover the silver cylinder (name of it escapes me at the moment) so it doesn't get any of the heat off the turbo. Can it be done yes I am sketching up my idea to do the same thing. I am greedy I want to keep it all lol.

It has been done before. I particularly like the build in this thread. Lots of pictures.
