I talked to another WI EV converter who said that he just used the "other" check box on a particular form and then had to take the vehicle to the emissions test station and show them - "look, batteries! Motor! No Tailpipe!"
This project is still just one huge work in progress and learn as I go.
There should be room for 2 or 3 batteries under the hood, with the rest going in back. The back batteries will be in a custom made box of some sort, either in the cargo area/Backseat, or possibly cutting a whole in the floor in the back and sink them into the spare tire well and fuel tank area.
I don't need huge range and speed on the finished vehicle, but I am leaning towards a 72V system right now as it should have ok speed and reasonable range.
If I could go 20 miles with a 35 mph top speed, I would be happy with that.
