Pick up can go on either side, I bought mine like this and as you can tell there isn't much room next to K Plane and Stringer. I would remove the floor board next to the engine and get your tape measure ready. Good Luck!

I'm actually in the process of changing out my pick up, its non adjustable and way too deep. There is another guy on here that runs a Whipple, even (flush) with the bottom for his IC. His is on other side.
That prop you mentioned will be close. A 30P Bravo with 1.5's, or a 28P Bravo with 1.36's will put you right in the ball park.

Mine goes from where you see it, thru the hull, over to a strainer on the port side, then to the IC, then out the driver side flush fitting. Like I said, this is just the way my pick up was when I bought it. Port side you will have a shorter route probably.
Your set up will put you in the low 80's all day long-

I put mine on the port side on the engine side of the stringer. Put a straight edge on the bottom of the hull for a true flush mount. The spray off the bottom of the hull is plenty of flow. No need to notch. I did the adjustable pickup w the partial scoop from cp performance. The only suggestion I have on the pickup is to make sure u get one w an npt fitting so you can thread a shut off valve on it. (Don't forget to leave urself enough room between the stringer and mount so u can thread on the shut off valve after u install the pickup)
