  1. depending on the type of foam it is, you may be able to melt it with some laquer thinner or denatured alcohol

    there are other chemicals that may work and it could be a hit or miss to find the correct one, unless the manufacter

    can tell you.

    this will be time consuming and tedious, and need a strong fan moving air.

    still it would be better than cutting up the floor

    use a good resperator

  2. you will want to provide a ventilation path to your batteries in the new storage area

    this will be needed to vent the gasses given off by the batteries while recharging

    it is best to seal the battery comp. from any living space

    to prevent corrosion to all your metal items in that space

    this can be done by using sealed battery boxes with a built in vent tube

    these are sold at speed shops for cars. they relocate there bats. to the trunks of there race cars

    also make sure to use a large enough wire for the longer run to the engine

  3. You should go to evinrude.com and look thru there parts break down pages

    They have some of the most detailed parts list of any web site I've ever seen

    Also if you determine to go ahead and work on it your self then get a factory manual

    One other site that has a wealth of info, especially for Erudes is iboats.com

    The sell parts so no forum for sales but the are a great bunch of guys with info on there forums

    They have manufacturer specific sub forums and have given me a huge amount of info on my E 140
