hi gang.
the z800 mobo hack was an inspiring read. ive decided to bite a bullet and get z820 mobo. it just happens i have two 2670 (not v2) and bunch of registered ram available.
ive gone through hp papers and found NOTHING similar to the z800 pinouts posted by Andy.
there is contrary information on the hp forum: one saying the powersupply and the pinouts r identical for both z800 and z820 the other says the opposite.
so, the very first step for me is to identify the pinouts and/or understand if the z800 shares truly identical powersupply with z820, hence - i could use Andy's hack guide.
as an alternative, there is:

i have very ltl understanding of how could i utilize that power supply with NON original case. stuck it on top and hoock 1 meter extenders? weird.
looking for advise fellas.
cheers, david.
