 Bill I was unable to read the DXF. Everything else looks fine. Where does
 the water rad go? There is no need to locate the engine laterally at the
rear.
 The rubber bushings handle that at the front.

Paul, the Water rad would have to be similar to Tracy's or Ed Andersons, one
on each side of the PSRU.  See mockup with foam in attached picture. Would
require duct work to properly interface with opening and rad surface.
