I've spend some time to find some info about *subject*, without good results at the moment. All I know at that moment is that one will need to different board (discussed there http://forum.seemecnc.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=5374, for example) to make that real, that's all.

What about mounting? Does anybody have working solution on the table or in mind?

If you're going to go with 3 hotends, may as well go with the Kraken, no? Just seems like it would be the easier, and quite possibly cheaper route, depending on the hotends. But I'm curious too. I'd really like to go multi-extruder when I get this ONE dialed in. I worry about oozing though, already a mess with just one.

Yep, 4 hotends would be great too. Could you give me good link to read about Kraken? All i've found is YouTube video

Another question, is extruders and filament pools mounting, i'm not imagine how to place them onto v2 of Rostock MAX

Mhackney is probably a good person to talk to about this, he's got a kraken running on his V1, you can check out his build thread in the build zone
