As far as single or twins go...just go with a single. Twin's are good for show but you will make more than enough power with a properly sized single turbo, have a much easier time with tuning (a big plus given how little support there is in that respect), have virtually no lag, have cooler engine bay temps, spend less money, etc, etc...

1) Twin set-ups are not just for show. I don't know what magazine you read that out of, but that information is wrong.
2) Turbos DO NOT
need to be any higher than the oil pan for any reason. The oil system is pressurized therefore it doesn't matter if the return line goes up, down, or twirl around like a crazy straw. It doesn't matter the direction of the return just as long as it isn't too long and doesn't restrict flow.
True, you can make good power with a single set-up, but as far as efficiency, and performance goes, twin set-ups are superior to single set-ups on a V block engine.
