You can't go from the body/frame unless you use solid motor mounts or some seriously expensive flex joints in the exhaust. One charger must move in unison with the other or you'll have some big plumbing issues.

Your truck looks tall already. Put a 3" body lift on it. Will open up all sorts of room.

Cool glad you got it..
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but the inducers are aall I know and I think they are 65/53
I'm thinking a cherry picker or taking the hood off and using an over head hoist that's my next step too

Why not pop the exhaust housing off and build your mount to it, would be quite a bit less weight to hold there. You probably thought of it, but suggestions never hurt. Haha. What are you planning to do with the oil fill neck? I believe Dustin is going to just use the factory oil feed location, but I suppose it may be a bit more of a challenge beings you're still running the factory turbos as well. I really can't wait to see that big bastard hanging out there. How much room is there for an air filter?
