I have seen this done, but it was a while ago on a website I can't recall at the
moment. I seem to remember that he had to change the fork dimensions to accomodate,
other than that it looked the same.

The O200 is said to be one of the heavier engine choices. I'm waiting to
select the battery location until I've hung the engine, and done a
preliminary weight and balance.
I'd like to place it forward of the firewall, because longer cables add to
weight, and there will be some voltage drop due to the longer cable. However,
if the aircraft comes out too nose heavy, there may be no choice.

Bill,
Mine are just behind the right seat. Actually, I have two batteries
there, the usual RG680 and a 8AH SLA as emergency backup for my
electrically dependent engine.
On final approach with flaps down, I must hold back stick to maintain
glide slope. This is not a problem, but would be much worse if the
batteries were forward.
