  Joe,
  You really have no choice but to mount the batteries aft.  You need them
  there for the weight and balance.  You need to put as much stuff behind
  the batteries as possible.  IE starter contactors, elt antennas, etc.
  You will still be nose heavy.  I land with full aft elevator input with
  the same configuration as you but with no A/C.  I have the large
  Mountain High o2 system with the bottle under the baggage compartment
  floor.  I also keep a a tool kit, aircraft cover, extra oil, and any
  baggage as far aft in the baggage compartment as possible.
