Thanks to all that responded to me about the conversion of my 0360 a4k to an IO. I called Lycoming and got the necessary info and now have an AEIO sump with verticla servo. Worked out great.
Now I am trying to decide on the battery type and placement. I noticed in Neil's pictures that his is on the firewall. Is there a reason to not install it behind the rear seat that I don't know. I have a metal prop rather than wood and I thought installing the battery behind the rear seat would help with the CG. I also hate to use up all the firewall area since I have a Christian system and hate to put all that heat on the battery. Any suggestions or pictures on ways others have installed theirs?
