Rigging Suggestions
 
So much expertise here, I thought i would throw out a request for anything you guys have done or seen that really stands out as nice, clean, functional. Just as a few examples, I'm trying to figure out where to put EVERYTHING like:The obvious place for a bunch of this stuff is on the bukkhead in front of engines but that certainly takes up some of the precious space to access things. The first pic is my boat. Second has example fuel filter location on port head and do kind of like that. I may even see if I could make a bracket that would allow me to install both fuel and oil filter on front of head. Seems like a VERY convenient place to change them and keep things clean? I may see if I can squeeze the fuel pressure regulator in there as well? My alternator is mounted low on port of motors so I kind of have that entire port head area open.

Don't just focus on the items I listed... where do you guys put stuff?

Every wire and hose is being installed new so I have really no limitations.

Thanks,
Tom

Did you get the header clearance issue solved ?? I have some brackets that mount to the rear of the head if you need some, good for regulator and ignition boxes. my fuel pumps are mounted on the stringers like a lot of boats, you want them as low as you can get them

No resolution on headers yet... Probably will be new set and hopefully I can find someone that can use a brand new set and I can sell.

didn't think about low fuel pumps. Makes sense. What kind of head brackets do you have? I'm interested. Pics? Price?

Thanks

I can extend these and also put in the cannon plug bracket welded in before shipping if needed

There are brackets that allow you to mount the oil and fuel filter together. Sorry these are the best pictures i have of mine and the boat is currently under shrink.

Also cool brackets. That looks nice and clean and easy to change filters. With fuel filter mounted on motor, does that mean you are pushing through filter versus pulling through? Fuel pump mounted low near tank and no filter before it from tank? My original plan was to pull through so contaminants don't get into pump?

Here comes my ignorance but what is a cannon plug?

F-2 Speedy 01-23-2019 09:27 AM

the round plug on the engine harness where the helm plugs in.
