Is there an STC for an extended baggage compartment with the battery mounted on the back?

An originality nut (mostly) for the right reasons. ;)

Thanks doesnt look like there is one.

Airglas is the only one that might work with a minor alteration.

Larry,
You will love the F Atley firewall battery. Get new Bogart cables and new solenoids while you are doing it.
