A:

Cool, makes me want to build an old-school turbo set-up for my 240Z. Really like the simplicity of the second one.

A:

It should work on any head with square exhaust ports. Actually, it'll work on one with round ports, but it'll flow less.
The blow through setups can make killer power and they can be intercooled in the 'normal' way.
The Turbo Tom "style" draw-through setup has other issues with fuel pooling in the bottom of the compressor housing.
Blow through's have pressure sealing issues with carbs that weren't originally designed to hold pressure.
Anyway, old school is pretty damn cool!
