If you have transmissions you've got to push them forward a little. This is the old one, it had trannies and yokes for the ASD's.

I know my batteries are just forward of the engines right up against the side of the hull. I don't think I have a MSD type of ignition system which I was thinking of getting one just for has rev limiter.

Previous owner on my RumRunner re-routed the batteries under the rear seat. Saved a lot of space. No pics available.

That's a good idea. Then if the batteries are down, they're easy to access to get the hatch up. In my case, that would put them in the subwoofer box.
