Have you looked at this article on the UAudio site it recommends the SBS chassis.

I myself am working with Magma to see if I can get my Digi 13 slot chassis running with my Mac Pro. I've ordered a PCI Express and PCI cards to update my setup. I'll post the results when I receive the cards.

And here's an update I received the PCIe, PCI cards and a new cable from Magma. Installed the PCIe in the Mac Pro the PCI in my 13 slot Magma connected the cable and loaded the latest drivers.

Initial test was with Precision Multiband and Neve 1073 on a 22 track project no problems.

I then added 22 DelayComp, 20 Cambridge Eq's, 3 Neve 1073, 2 1176LN, and 2 LA2A.

3 AUX tracks Plate 140, Dreamverb, Realverb Pro.
Then to load things a little on the Master Bus Precision Eq, Precision Multiband, and Precision Limiter.

So far everything seems to be solid if I see any problems I'll report later.
