Default Engine Compartment pictures

Hi guys' - I have a 93 290 Enticer, with twin 502's. I just bought K-Planes for the boat.

Before i install them, i was hoping to fine some pictures of an engine compartment of a similar set up in a PQ.

Any pictures, or advise is appreciated.

Thanks - Boatnut & PQ man - I'm counting on you guys

Your biggest concern is can every bolt be thru-bolted or will you run into a situation to where you have to lag some of the bolts in due to stringer interference, etc. You'll need to know this ahead of time before drilling the mounting holes.

yep one bolt is going to be a lag bolt because you cant work around the stringer..fill the hole with 4200 and dont overtighten the lag bolt..
