Holy Crap, this could get interesting... :evilb:

Rick, with the stagger, will the back seat move forward?

Pat I'm thinking the same thing ??? I would only do that with a FULL STAGGER.

I'm not going to be much help for details as to how its all goning to come together yet. I'm not sure JC even has it all figured out but we came to the conclusion that to get the CG of the boat right you had to move the engine forward... Once you do that there isn't enough room to service or even install the biatches, so staggering the small blocks was the decision. This boat is getting set up to go fast in big water...

Yep Cohen said there would still be room for 3 people to sit in back so thats the plan as of now... I'm thinking of using 5 buckets anyway so the engine bulkhead is going to get a redesign to make room for the forward engine... The more we talked about it the more excited John got about the idea, Seems like a trick set up to me.

Another reason for the stagger is with the side-by-side set up you cant use headers, tall deck blocks, or really anything that makes the engine wider then stock; it just doesnt fit. Rick can probably chime in with a better idea as to how its all going to work and how much space is moving where etc, etc, etc,

Re: Rob, Huntington Beach !!
 
so the rear bulk can stay the same ?? and still acess to the front of the forward motor ????
