When you say neutral box, that's just straight right. Does nothing else but extend.

Right
If memory serves me My Scarab 34 had the drives down 5 inches.( with the -2 drives) BUT it was a twin. BUT it weighed a LOT MORE than your 26.

But can't reach it with the 26 I have. I'm trying to figure if I bring my prop shaft depth up to 5 from 8 would I run better and more efficient cruising.

I would start with a -2. Lots more used ones available and you don't have to modify the upper.
