Default Best control setup for twin inboards?

Anyway, does anyone have any more advice about setting up the shift/
throttle controls on a twin inboard? What's your preferred setup?


The classic setup on most boats is twin shift levers to port, twin
throttles to starboard. That's what I'm used to.


That is what my inclination is to do, but I wanted to see what
arguments could be presented for a different setup. It currently has
the dual shift/throttle control combo. I bought a replacement console
(built to the original specs) and the big chunky dual control doesn't
fit width wise. Since it needs to be changed, I figured I'd get some
knowledgeable advice before I bought.
I have an old set of morse controls- is it possible to fit them with
the neutral lock add-on? The chrome on them is kind of beat up, but
the price (free) is good...
Thanks,
Michael
