I did something similar in replacing my massive 8D start with a single G31 to start both engines, but I'm only cranking small Perkins 85hp 4.236's. Since my port alternator is dedicated to this start batt, I always start my port engine first and verify the alternator is online before starting the stbd side.
If I need ever need help with more juice for the start, I have a 6xGC house bank that can be paralleled with the twist of the switch that's located outside the ER. So far, it's never been needed.
I'm a big fan of G31 start batts, too. Nice improvement, Tom! On to #499!
