from the merc book, take it for what it's worth.

from the transom to the front of the sea pump pulley "v belt style" is 49 1/4 inches
4 from the transom to point of measure, 45 1/4 from there to the sea pump pulley.

this is w/ a #3, the dimension for the trs drive is longer by a 1/4 inch and do remember something about
there being a slight difference but by how much ? who knows.

should be able to get a better pic in the daylight, hope it helps you out
