Default External steering on 10 Meter

I just bought a used Marine Machine external steering setup for my '88 10 Meter w/TRS. Does anyone have one of these installed on a 10 Meter? What brands do you guys have, and any pics on how it's mounted? I have been able to find a few pics in the classifieds, and some of them are mounted between the drives. I dont have my parts yet, but by my measurements I should be able to mount them just outside the tabs. Any pics or info would be helpful. Thanks.

Here's my setup. It's a 12M with SSM 3"s but it should help with ideas.

It's a 12M. Power is B&M 250 Blown 500 HP's with some head work, MSD Distributors and Ignition and Stellings. They dynoed at 698 HP and 694 HP. Planning and adding Super Chillers, I want to break into the 700's.

12 meter* my bad. Nice! What speeds are you getting now? I'm at 71-73 with 500ish and the big old trs hanging off the back. Can't wait for the day to upgrade power and drives. They sure do ride nice don't they!?

Well the motors have just been put in and we are still in the test and tune stage. We have gotten 78 on the GPS so far, but that was at around 4500 RPM. When we had the motors on the dyno we got the best HP at 5600 to 5800 RPM. So I'm hoping for the mid to high 80's on our next test run. We are still searching for a couple Gremlins in the wiring department.
