Adam did a lot of calculations and when all said and done we will be 1-11/16 inch higher overall at the prop shaft.

The Baja transom is at a different angle than all other brands. I do not remember that angle off the top of my head. The IMCO boxes are really built for the other angle. They are a neutral box and the SCX lowers only come 2 inch shorter than stock.

So the bottom line is while I did not raise the "X" by raising the engines I will end up approximately 1-11/16" higher at the prop shaft.

The big question for the expert you are is "CG". You and I have talked about this a lot and you know that my 36 is a lot diffferent than the 33 in that I don't see a difference by just adding people to the back seat. Any predictions on what this setup will do?

Doc
I thought you could get the SCX in -3?

The SC can be had in -3, SCX -2 only...

That is correct. I can only assume it is because of the larger internals. Larger gears, bearings, shafts, oil capacity, cooling passages, etc. Probably limits just how compact they can make them.

You can buy them several hundred dollars cheaper$$$$$ than the MSRP.

Do some shopping. I got a really good deal on eBay.

I've seen these on some high dollar yachts and they are fantastic.

I will not be running the light except when parked at dock when we can enjoy it.

If you watch they pop up from time to time. I missed one a few weeks ago that was cheaper than I paid. There is also a deal out in California that had this unit under $800.00 with free shipping that I found searching the web. You just have to shop around. Are they expensive, YEAH but having seen one in operation I think they are worth it. I was also lucky to find the blue color which was my first choice.

Doc, Adam is putting a set on my boat now. They aren't as high dollar as yours, but I think they will get the job done. He's also doing some led's. That's your fault for posting the pics of yours. I'll let the wife know were to direct her anger for the money spent towards you.:drink:
