Ok. I'm coming up with 82 from transom to forward bulkhead, 16 from transom to rear motor mount plate of rear engine, 34 3/4 from rear motor plate of rear engine to rear plate of front engine and 31 1/2 from rear motor plate of front engine to forward bulkhead. Measured as close as I could to crankshaft centerline. I couldn't measure directly on top of the stringers because all the mounts were in the way. It's 53 wide from stringer to stringer. Also just as info I have 67 of cockpit space.

A quick pic for frickstyle. Trying to figure out how to use the new Innovate afr meter without reading the instructions. Here's the video.

BCK, awesome rig!!! Would love to see it someday, good luck with your engine woes, Gil mentioned you had some heartache, I think you did too.

Thanks. Engines are being gone through right now. Would have been done by now but I spent the last 3 weeks looking for blowers and deciding if I could afford them. They won't be blown. Rick- with my engines the first interference you would encounter when trying to get them closer together front to rear would be the front engines bellhousing cooler fittings coming in contact with the rear engines alternator. Not using the cooler on that side would gain a little. Finding somewhere else to mount the alternator would gain more.

Thanks BCK . Good to know , currently I don't run bell housings with in the integrated coolers so that might be a small advantage and relocating the alternater shouldn't be that difficult . Great info .

Rick IMCO makes a low mount for the alt. that works great its a copy of the original Gentry version. Have use many times. BCK the engine room cleaned up great did you have to repaint it lot better than when we looks at it here in CA.

I painted it with a brush and the Valspar product you recommended and it turned out great. Unfortunately a couple people that worked on it weren't very careful with keeping it clean. I removed all the aluminum and was going to have that redone as well but that "bright" anodizing was a multi step process that would have involved a couple different companies and pretty hefty bill- at least in western ny. It would apparently need to be stripped then polished then reanodized and no 1 company was able to handle it.
