I just posted something on the Aeroelectric list with subject:
"Initial experience with dual Odyssey PC680s powering RV-10 with Z-14"

Please take a look.

What starter do you have? My Vans'-ordered IO-540 came with the lighter weight starter. I had Lycoming send me the heavy duty one, which they did at no charge.

With the larger PC 925 (standard location, #2 AWG cable, grounded to airframe) and the heavy duty starter, the engine turns over very well.

We are getting too much voltage drop with that long #2 wire and should be running #1 or 0. The lycoming supplied starter would work fine then.
