Bck, I can't believe you can fit an engine in the forward position. the pulleys must rub the bulkhead!!!

Forward motor clearance. Set the timing before installation. Also some before and during of the cleanup/ paint

Looks great BCK. Just a thought but what about an access panel in the bulkhead behind the seat that you could remove to make things like timing and spark plug removal easier ?
Just a thought , that's what I am contemplating should I do the stagger in the confined space of 80 inches

It had one of those for clearance for the blower pulleys and I had it filled in. I would have left it had I realized... It was bolted in place.

. . . . I filled a bunch of dash holes in for a guy once that pretty much put them all back in that same location after he got the boat back

You should've warned me I'd want that hole again. I was very close to putting blowers back on it, then I would've needed the damn scoops put back on to go along with the hole in front

It was actually pretty sturdy but I didn't like it. Now for my question- what is the little square silver block with the hole in the middle just to the top left of the cutout? There is one on each side of the bulkhead. Do you know what it is Dan ? Probably something else useful I removed.

Those were for the prop rods to hold the hatches open. Some one removed the prop rods

Ok thanks. I figured the prop rod setup that's on it now had always been on it. Someone must have changed them around
