The AAN will clear the battery from the factory, but then it won't clear the radiator.
Hence Alex using the MTM sourced IM. The 3B and ABY/ADU can be setup the same way. The exhaust is such that there is no interference with the B3 batt tray like there is with the 10vt setups.

<center><img src="http://www.urs4.com/logbook/RS2CQ/engine/engine.jpg"></center><p>I didn't have a full engine shot before now,
but I took one tonight. What I love about these
projects is how everyone does things differently.
It seems no two projects are alike. So, I have
made a "spotter's guide" to my engine bay and the
unique combination of decisions that I made about
my car. In general, it is a full-spec RS2 engine
conversion, except for the exhaust cam (7A) and a
couple of other very minor details. Other
changes are outlined below, going clockwise from
noon in the photo.
1 - Conversion to vacuum-assisted brakes
2 - Tilton brake proportioning valve
3 - Conversion to hood prop
4 - Crankcase vent oil catch can (Home Depot style, made from paint can)
5 - Hood pins
6 - Dialynx aluminum radiator
7 - Custom aluminum brace and radiator support
8 - Aux radiator replaced with Mercedes oil cooler
9 - Cone filter
10 - Battery relocation
11 - POS relocation and heat sink mod
There is other stuff you can't see in the photo,
but a full walkthrough will come later. Especially
after I have cleaned it up a bit. Sorry about the
grubbiness!
Later,
