Does your page state that it's for the 8 ?
Thanks for the input. I have researched it a lot and the consenus seems to be aft. I have a Aerosport carbeurated 0-360-A1A with Catto 3 blade, Odyessy battery, lightwieght MGL Odyessy panel, and I am 6' 6" and 250 lbs.
My calculations say it should be pretty good with the firewall mount and all the other poop stuffed in the aft fuse. I guess time will tell ..
FWIW, I put my battery in the well of the front baggage compartment.

On my plans set it's Drawing 31 left hand side.
Based on my experience and every other -8 driver I've met, consider placing it in the back unless you've got an O-320 and fixed pitch prop. 8's tend to be nose heavy.
